A must read for foodies and cooking enthusiasts
I have owned this book for 12 years and it is falling apart at the spine and covered with splatters and flour! It is a terrific read with half devoted to anecdotes about the restaurant business and half to fabulous recipes. I have prepared approximately half of the recipes in the book with consistently great results. You must try her cream of tomato soup and the wine-cheese-garlic bread! When I need tasty impressive food this is the book I consistently turn to. Bravo!

My favorite cookbook on the shelf!
I spent a lovely weekend on the coast and happened upon CAFE BEAUJOLAIS. After a splended meal, I purchased an autographed copy of this book. The recipes are all easy to follow and each have a history or source. Her spicy buttermilk coffee cake is to die for! Ms. Fox speaks of her cookbook collection and how she "looks up" the same recipe in many different cookbooks. This is where I first understood the concept of recipe comparing. I also enjoyed reading about the goings-on in her resturant. This is a fabulous book!

I've worn out my first copy of cafe beaujolais
This is my one book that i go to again, and again and again. Everything in it from Chinese Chicken Salad to Mom's Banana Cake is scrumptious. It's hard to say what is my favorite - I guess they all are. You are missing out if you don't have this book. You won't be sorry; not to mention that simple instructions, simple ingredients, wonderful for the novice cook and then some. ENJOY!
