Un dîner en musique
Michel Portos, Nathalie Krafft

Who doesn’t know Schubert’s Trout Quintet or the Champagne Aria from Don Giovanni? What about Tournedos Rossini or Peach Melba? Musicians and gourmets have always gone hand in hand – since the celebrated pheasant banquet in the Middle Ages when an orchestra of 28 musicians popped out of a giant pie.… Starred chef and music-lover Michel Portos has composed 10 menus (for a total of 30 recipes) inspired by 10 great composers, from Bach to Dutilleux via Mozart, Beethoven and Verdi. Gourmets are in for a treat, both literally and figuratively, thanks to the tasty texts provided by Nathalie Krafft, who paints unusual portraits of composers in gourmet guises… The perfect gift for any man or woman of taste.

A cookbook by starred chef Michel Portos, with 10 menus (30 recipes) inspired by 10 great composers, from Bach to Dutilleux. Each menu is followed by several pages of anecdotes written by music journalist Nathalie Krafft, providing unusual portraits of the composers in gourmet guises.
