What People Are Saying

Charlie Trotter
George Morrone has always had a gifted touch, but with this delightful book he zeros in on something we all love--basic, delicious, comforting food, all in the form of satiny, unctuous, enticing soups! With Simply Soup, Chef Morrone takes Four Star restaurant ideas and distills them for the home cook.
Congratulations George, you've produced a winner!
