A New Zealander opening a restaurant in Paris? Sheer cheek and blind determination lead Peta Mathias to fulfil her long-held ambition... rising from dishwasher to French chef... and a life filled with sensuous gastronomic experiences. The wonderful recipes Peta cooked during her extraordinary time in France are intermingled here with her lively account of the exotic French lifestyle and the colourful characters she encountered.
