This book is such a clever idea…

This book is such a clever idea I’m amazed it hasn’t been done before…the recipes are just right for a grand but unpretentious dinner party…(they are) interior designers, and their table settings show the attention to detail that comes with the job.

You heard it here first: Victoria Cator and Lucinda Bruce are the new Trinny and Susannah but their mission is to reinvent the way we entertain rather than how we dress…The real hero of the book is photographer Mark Cator whose sumptuous images bring V and L’s succinct tips and recipes to life.

Being less domestic goddess than kitchen dunce, I need help. Enter Lucinda Bruce and Victoria Cator…who are set to become glamourous new kitchen pin-ups following the launch of Flavour of the Month…We’ve deliberately made the recipes as simple as possible,’ says Lucinda. Mercifully true. Emboldened, I attempted one of the July recipes over the weekend rack of lamb with guacamole and tomatoes spruced up with a pot of pink geraniums on the table…my testers wolfed it down, declaring it a winner.
