Elizabeth David starts by setting the record straight: "Those who care to look for it will find the justification of France's culinary reputation in the provinces, at the riverside inns, in unknown cafe's...in sea port bistros...and nowadays in cafe's routiers, the lorry-drivers' restaurants. In such places the most interesting food of France is to be found." From having lived with a French family while studying in France, she was able to bring firsthand knowledge to provincial French cooking and has now become a classic.
