In a quaint English market town in the 1980s, Pauline Parry finds
herself a divorced mother of two small children. A chance encounter
leads her to a new life, one that begins in the most unlikely of
places - a flat above a restaurant. There, she soon realizes her true
calling as a culinary explorer, ready to embrace a passion for food that
will guide her for life. But cooking isn't the only passion that Pauline
discovers. As her professional rise takes her from Michelin-starred
castle restaurants to California's famed Napa Valley, she's joined on
the journey by Dennis, a handsome craftsman and confirmed bachelor -
that is, until he meets Pauline. My Culinary Love Story charts
Dennis and Pauline's journey through fabulous restaurants, beautiful
destinations and delectable culinary experiences. At every stage,
Pauline's story is peppered with mouth-watering recipes capturing
meaningful moments as she grows as a woman, mother, chef and wife.
Pauline's irrepressible love of life, food and fun will lead her to
start Good Gracious! Events in Los Angeles, one of the nation's premier
catering firms, with a wall filled with awards for innovative cuisine
and presentation. In My Culinary Love Story, she shares her
romance, her wisdom and her infectious determination to savor whatever
adventure comes next in a beautifully illustrated memoir and cookbook.
