George Sorensen wants to learn to cook. Not just cook, but to finally learn how to prepare a truly great meal. He recruits a group of amateur culinary experts to meet monthly at his little Minneapolis bungalow to cook, eat, drink, and teach him the ropes. He does not, however, anticipate the dynamics of bringing together these self-proclaimed chefs. Arguments over wine erupt, while others sow discord and divorce. All the while, George also embarks on a year-long gastronomic journey from France to Greece, from goose to soufflé. All of it adds up to an unforgettable journey of flavor, camaraderie, and adventure--Adapted from back cover.
