Immoveable Feast: A Paris Christmas
เช เช-เชชเซเชธเซเชคเช เชตเชฟเชถเซ
Ernest Hemingway called Paris "a moveable feast"โa city ready to embrace you at any time in life. For Los Angelesโbased film critic John Baxter, that moment came when he fell in love with a French woman and impulsively moved to Paris to marry her. As a test of his love, his skeptical in-laws charged him with cooking the next Christmas banquetโfor eighteen people in their ancestral country home. Baxter's memoir of his yearlong quest takes readers along his misadventures and delicious triumphs as he visits the farthest corners of France in search of the country's best recipes and ingredients. Irresistible and fascinating, Immoveable Feast is a warmhearted tale of good food, romance, family, and the Christmas spirit, Parisian style.
