These are the opinions and adventures of a Washington, D.C.-based epicure as he cooks and eats around town and around the country. Sometimes witty, sometimes laudatory, sometimes acid, La Cuvée Americaine is an always-truthful account of the food journeys, restaurant visits, and culinary thoughts of the D.C. Gourmand.
About the Reviewer
- D.C. Gourmand
- Washington, D.C.
- The D.C. Gourmand is a former restaurant reviewer and college professor who now lives and works in Washington, D.C. He has taught classes on etiquette, food, and wine. While in graduate school at Oxford, he took classes at L'Ecole du Petit Cordon Bleu, the London branch of the famed Parisian cooking school, but today he prefers to leave cooking to the professionals. He explains, "Most people have absolutely no idea how much work and how incredibly high stress cooking can be!"
