OrangeReviewStarMore meandering than her previous titles, Greenspan's latest collects the casual foods she makes for family and friends. American and French dishes abound (Greenspan splits her time among New York, Connecticut, and Paris), complemented by international additions not found in Around my French Table. Stunners include candied cocktail almonds, spring avocado and berry salad, Luang Prabang chicken-chili sandwich, and drop-biscuit peach cobbler. The recipes are generally simple and foolproof; the kind most cooks feel confident making for guests without any advance practice.
VERDICT Greenspan's huge popularity and cult following will assure high demand. Though this title is potentially of less interest to Greenspan's baker fans, it will excite devotees of Ina Garten, Deb Perelman, and David Lebovitz.
