Twenty Dinners

Zusatztext “Enjoy cooking with friends?  This is the book for you.”  -- Epicurious   “Twenty Dinners is a laid-back! welcoming cookbook that wants you to invite some friends over! dive in and cook together—no stress! no pretense! no overthinking.”-Paste Magazine   “If it seems almost like an accident that Grizzly Bear bassist Chris Taylor and chef-turned-photographer Ithai Schori made a cookbook! that’s kind of the point. The pair! longtime friends and self-styled gastronauts! rented a house in Hudson! New York! and hosted a series of warm! music-filled dinner parties. The result of these labors is  Twenty Dinners  (Clarkson Potter)! more of a modishly offbeat guide to eating and entertaining than a recipe book.”-Vogue.com   “How does Grizzly Bear's frontman spend his days off tour? Holed up in the kitchen roasting chickens or hunched over a fire pit grilling trout in the great outdoors with friend and fellow dinner party crusader Ithai Schori. The two met in the kitchen! cutting! blanching and whatever else was needed for dinner parties thrown by mutual friends! and now they're sharing their own unfussy but elegant recipes for dinner parties dreamed up for each season. Summer brings bourbon and jalapeño-spiked burgers and winter pan-roasted duck! which all sound like a party to us.”-Tasting Table   “Is it possible to fall in love with a cookbook? I ask because I'm positively swooning over  Twenty Dinners.”-Fine Cooking When [Chris Taylor and Ithai Schori] met! the two discovered a shared passion for ‘making good food happen’ and for feeding their friends in an unhurried! laid-back style.
