One of Oprah’s 2018 Favorite Things! An illustrated journal to record celebrations, with paintings by the legendary chef and artist Jacques Pépin For the last fifty years, Jacques Pépin has created lushly hand-illustrated journals to keep track what he cooked for friends, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and holidays. This book collects Pépin’s favorite paintings so you can commemorate your own dinners: the dishes you serve, the wines that accompany them, and even the music you play. Choose from the more than 75 charmingly designed borders and use it to frame your menu. In the space on the opposite page, your guests can sign their names and write little notes. With an introduction by Pépin, this “dinner diary” is both a practical reminder of what dishes were served to which guests and an invaluable archive of memories.

Most artistic blank cookbook out there
I found this at Ollie’s once and fell in love with it. I have used it so much that I’ve ordered another as a gift. Wish this Chef would produce more of these! His artwork is so beautiful. Would buy again for sure.

Makes a wonderful gift!
Jacques Pépin is one of my favorite chefs and television personalities and since I got to spend an evening with him in person I adore him even more so purchasing this beautiful book illustrated by him was a must. I've since purchased it to gift as well. It's perfect for Jacques fans or anyone that loves to cook, entertain, or appreciates art.

A great anniversary gift
I ordered this for my daughter and son in law for their anniversary. They enjoy cooking and entertaining so this book is perfect for them. They both admired the beautiful illustrations in the book. With Thanksgiving coming they will use it for their menu and guests will record their thoughts about the day

Arrived damaged, which is a shame for the beautiful book.
It is a great large size and the quality of the cover and paper is lovely. The illustrations are beautiful. Although it was packed well, the spine and front corner of the book was damaged.

Beautiful book
What a charming, attractive book. Beautiful paintings. I lack the artistic talent to paint my own menus, but this is the next best thing. I often entertain - filling out these page and having my guests sign it has fast become a favorite tradition. I look forward to filling the book up and will soon have to invest in a second volume!
