Non-Fiction Memoir
Souvenirs is a memoir cookbook written by the multitalented
Hubert Keller: chef, restaurateur, and Frenchman. Through
personal stories and 120 recipes, the book explores his
classical training and traces his development as a creative
superstar chef. Keller apprentices in a Michelin three
star–rated restaurant at the age of 16. He moves from his
native Alsace, to southern France, and is inspired by the
cuisine of the sun while working with the great French chefs
of his time, Roger Vergé, Paul Bocuse, and Gaston Lenôtre.
He learns to adapt to challenging new environments in South
America, and the United States, and charts his own path into
the newest frontiers of the restaurant business. The book is
organized by seminal themes in his life; it starts with his
family in France, and ends back there in the “Holiday”
chapter. The myriad recipes, which have been adapted for the
home cook, are intertwined with 125 of Eric Wolfinger's
luscious images of family and friends, food and cuisine, and
the places and landscapes of France, Las Vegas, and San
Francisco, which all make up chef Keller’s life.
