Product Description
Patrick Dunne has made a career of collecting and researching the history of fascinating and beautiful culinary implements and his accumulated knowledge is ripe for collecting in a book. From absinthe spoons to caf-au-lait bowls, he illuminates a wide variety of subjects with verve and authority. Lavishly illustrated, part food history, part a connoisseurs handbook, the epicurean collector will appeal to a broad readership interested in antiques as well as the more general areas of food presentation, entertaining, and style at the table.
About The Author
Patrick Dunne is a sixth generation Southerner, and proprietor of Lucullus, a well-known antiques store in New Orleans. Dunne writes a regular column in Southern Accents, "The Epicurean Collector." He lives in Louisiana.
Reader Reviews
Patrick Dunne is one of, if not the, leading experts on food-related antiques in America, and French antiques in general. His shop on Chartres street is one of the best-kept secrets in New Orleans. This book lists "et al" as additional authors of The Epicurean Collector, but don't believe it: without Dunne, there is no book. This stunning book is a fascinating look at lovely pieces and Dunne's excellent prose. If you love antiques related to food, own this book and be very happy.
