An award-winning ode to classic French cooking, seasonal living, and the quiet elegance of Burgundy.

 

Created by mother-and-daughter duo Marjorie Taylor and Kendall Smith Franchini, founders of the celebrated Cook’s Atelier in Beaune, this beautifully designed volume captures the rhythm of French market cooking and village life. Winner of the IACP Cookbook Awards for Design and for Food Photography & Styling, it is as visually arresting as it is deeply practical.

 

With more than 100 market-driven recipes and over 300 luminous photographs, the book builds a timeless foundation of essential French techniques—stocks and sauces, pastry, preserving, and butchery—before unfolding into seasonal menus of refined yet approachable dishes.

 

Interwoven stories of family, farmers, and daily life in Burgundy lend warmth and soul, making this book both a working reference and an atmospheric keepsake.

A cornerstone volume for anyone drawn to French cuisine, thoughtful living, and enduring style.
