River Cafe London: Thirty Years of Recipes and the Story of a Much-Loved Restaurant: A Cookbook

At the River Cafe in London, Ruth Rogers and her co-founder, Rose Gray, helped to shape the way we eat, trained a new generation of chefs, and, with their best-selling cookbooks, transformed the way we prepare Italian food at home.

Now, with River Cafe London, Ruth and her restaurant's head chefs, Joseph Trivelli and Sian Wyn Owen, invite you to join them in marking thirty years of memories and good food--the simple, high-quality Italian cooking that River Cafe has been providing since 1987.

Here are 120 recipes for incomparable antipasti, primi, secondi, contorni, and dolci--both revised and updated favorites from Ruth and Rose's first cookbook, as well as thirty new classics from their menus today: Ravioli with Ricotta, Raw Tomato, and Basil
Spaghetti with Lemon
Risotto Nero with Swiss Chard
Pork Braised with Vinegar
and, of course, their famous Chocolate Nemesis cake.

River Cafe London also incorporates Ruth's memories of the restaurant's storied history and of its founding: unseen archive images
careful cooking tips and hand-drawn illustrations
new photography by Jean Pigozzi and Matthew Donaldson
and bespoke menu designs from the restaurant's many artist friends.

This beautiful cookbook encapsulates the essence of the restaurant and its food--and is a must-have for all food lovers to cook from time and again.
