Annie's Farmhouse Kitchen is a window on the world of chef Annie Smithers, who runs a small, hugely successful French-Provincial restaurant in a small country town. It includes the best three and four-course menus collated by Annie over the first three years of her hugely successful restaurant, du Fermier. Annie's food is classic French-Provincial, presented with a distinct pared-back, accessible aesthetic, and determined very much by whatever is thriving in her vegetable garden.
As well as the menus, Annie includes timelines that guide the reader through the process of recreating her feasts. Annie's distinct voice features throughout – offering readers advice on getting the best results from her recipes and supplying entertaining insights into the daily challenges of running a successful small business.
