Flavours of Cooper's Cove Guesthouse (Garber review) *****
One of my great criticisms of contemporary cookbooks by masters of the kitchen is that the regular home-based cook cannot accomplish the recipes. Yet even the recipe for French toast with plum compôte is "dressed for company" by a few simple (i.e. easy) touches that make all the difference. Five stars.
