Women chefs have come into their own as powerful influences on American cuisine, garnering coveted awards and national reputations. Showcasing the talents of thirty of America's distinguished female chefs, Great Women Chefs celebrates the important contribution women are making in restaurants across the country as they define the cutting edge of the new cuisine - these chefs either work in or own some of the most famous culinary hot spots in America. A splendid presentation of these women and their innovative culinary creations, Great Women Chefs profiles each chef and presents the recipes of her specially designed menu, each accompanied by wine suggestions and tantalizing photographs.
