Food & Life

S$75

More than a cookbook, Food & Life is an ode to food and to the art of delicious and healthful cuisine. Whereas today’s fashionable diets create deficiencies and imbalances, and deprive us of part of the joy of living, Food & Life is a celebration of food as an integral part of happiness. Filled with imagery both beautiful and instructive, this volume features explanations of the nutritional virtues of fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, meats and fish—and their effects on our physical and mental well-being—plus delicious gourmet recipes balanced for all seasons and all stages of life.

World-renowned French chef Joël Robuchon has devoted his culinary art to bringing people health and happiness. Originally from Poitiers, Robuchon was awarded Meilleur Ouvrier de France in 1976, Chef of the Year in 1987, and Chef of the Century in 1990. Today Robuchon holds the most Michelin stars of any chef in the world . In 2014 he opened Atelier de Joël Robuchon in Bangkok, New York, and Mumbai, along with a gastronomic restaurant in Bordeaux.
