Octaphilosophy : The Eight Elements of Restaurant Andre

Octaphilosophy : The Eight Elements of Restaurant Andre

 
The culinary philosophy of premiere chef Andre Chiang, whose Restaurant Andre is in the top 50 world's best restaurants list.

Headed up by chef-owner Andre Chiang, Restaurant Andre's menu centres around his 'Octaphilosophy' taking into account Chiang's eight elements of gastronomy: salt, texture, memory, purity, terroir, south, artisan and uniqueness.

Octaphilosophy, explores one year in his restaurant. Including snacks, mains and sweets over each season, and the stories and processes behind each dish, Chiang will share his unique approach to food combining the technical precision of Asian gastronomy with the Western culinary preference for produce, producers and seasonality.

This volume includes 150 recipes, 95 full dishes, 22 fermented juices and 33 basic recipes.

Heavily illustrated with photos of the working kitchen, and the final results, Octaphilosophy will be one of the first cookbooks to capture the emerging gastronomic scene in Asia and its leading proponent.
