For Joie de Vivre, Sacha de Boer (photographer), Babs Assink (journalist), and Janine Smits (stylist) asked ten top chefs to each develop two original and modern menus based on recipes from a classic French cookbook from 1873. The 60 delicious dishes that resulted are accompanied by beautiful photographs and clear explanations. With recipes from, among others, Jonnie Boer, Ron Blaauw, and Angélique Schmeinck.
