Michael McCarty has played a major role in defining a
uniquely modern American attitude to cooking, dining, and
entertaining since 1979, when he opened his first acclaimed
Michael"s restaurant in Santa Monica, California. McCarty"s
approach, now enjoyed on both coasts with the opening of
Michael's New York in 1989, has always been refreshingly
simple: start with the best ingredients, cook them in simple
ways that highlight their natural qualities, pair them with
great wines, and serve them in a relaxed yet stylish
setting. The result, in Michael's own words, should be a
"great party," which this book makes possible for any home
cook.Adding to the lively spirit of Welcome to Michael's are
the voices of dozens of luminaries from the worlds of
entertainment, the arts, the media, business, politics, and
cooking who share their own insightful, sometimes irreverent
opinions about the Michael's experience. The result is a
book to be savored on many levels: as a guide to cooking for
yourself, your family, and your friends and to entertaining
with style; as a primer on the rewarding relationship
between food and wine; and as an experience that comes as
close as words and pictures possibly can to enjoying a meal
at one of Michael's restaurants, surrounded by the luminous
personalities who dine there.
