Day 303: Gumbo Shop

Chatting Books Online Day 303. Today's recommended book is a great one for this cold wet weather. When the weather gets like this I want something warm and hearty , preferably cooked in a big pot, for dinner so what better book for this purpose than "Gumbo Shop: traditional and Contemporary Creole Cuisine . A New Orleans Restaurant Cookbook" by Richard Stewart with a forward by Peggy Scott Laborde.

This cookbook has not only Gumbo recipes as you may expect (actually 6 different gumbos including Z'Herbes) but it also has soups, chowders, beans of all varieties , entrees and even desserts and specialty drinks served at the iconic French Quarter restaurant ( think Cafe Brulot, Sazeracs and Bourbon Milk Punch).

This paperback cookbook features 117 pages . It sells for $17.95 a copy and if you act quickly I even have 2 signed copies available.

To purchase a copy come see us at the shop during business hours or you can call or message me to have a copy shipped to you .Now mask up and stay warm.
