"The author of this wonderful book Virginia Willis has put together the food of her native Georgia and her classical French techniques to create this really pretty book. I love it. I love the photographs. I love the writing in it. It's really, really nice."
—Martha Stewart, The Martha Stewart Show 5/7/08
“Magnificent color photos; detailed, helpful tips; and Willis’s cheerful, trustworthy guidance makes this an original and welcome newcomer to a classic cookbook library.”
—Publishers Weekly
"A glorious celebration of food...Willis serves up great stories with her tasty dishes, and explains techniques with great clarity. The photography sizzles and the colors pop in one of the nicest cookbooks I've read in a long time (and the food is delicious.)"
—Louisville Courier Journal
"Gorgeously photographed and filled with warm notes about recipes learned from her mother, grandparents, and friends, it seems designed as an ideal Mother's Day gift."
—Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"Simple, great ingredients are the hallmark of this book, whose recipes display a great flair for techniques that are Southern and European. The food becomes timeless and border-less...It's Southern, sure, but with a refreshing twist."
—Raleigh News & Observer
