Author: Charlie Trotter

Library Journal

Patrick Clark was a talented and personable New York City chef who died of heart failure last year at the age of 42 while waiting for a heart transplant. He'd cooked in restaurants in Washington, DC, and Los Angeles as well as at New York's Tavern on the Green and was a familiar figure on the charity fundraising circuit. Now some 50 of his colleagues from across the country--Emeril Lagasse, Daniel Boulud, and Alice Waters, among them--have contributed recipes and reminiscences in his honor. Trotter, who put the project together, gathered 60 of Clark's own elegant and delicious recipes, most of which are shown in full-page color photographs. A lovely collection of recipes and a touching testimonial to Clark's influence, this is recommended for any library where chefs' books are popular. (Proceeds will go to a trust set up for Clark's five children.) Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
