Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The Last Meal Game is the age-old 'what would your last meal on earth be?' question that chefs ask each other after hours, once we, the innocent punters, are out of earshot.

In this brilliant book, Melanie Dunea convinces fifty of the world's most famous chefs to reveal their last supper fantasies. Asking them who would prepare it, where it would take place, who would be invited, whether there would be music, and, most importantly, what the dishes would be. Their answers reveal the passions and personalities of the most respected names in the business.

Accompanying the interviews there are Vanity Fair style portraits that beautifully capture their intimate responses, and at the back of the book there are mouth-watering recipes from each of the chefs.

As well as being a full-colour visual feast, My Last Supper is a veritable Who's Who of the cooking world- Anthony Bourdain, Neil Perry, Tetsuya Wakuda, Guillaume Brahimi, Chui Lee Luk, Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay are among the many contributors.

Melanie Dunea convinces 50 of the world's most famous chefs to reveal their last supper fantasies, asking them who would prepare it, where it would take place, who would be invited, whether there would be music, and, most importantly, what the dishes would be.
