Anybody read Rex Stout detective novels? Nero Wolfe, the overweight
genius gourmet detective? One of the books, called Too Many Cooks,
has bits of a Nero Wolfe speech rhapsodically defending American
cuisine to an assembled convocation of French chefs. One of my
favourites. The Nero Wolfe Cookbook has some pretty groovy recipes,
too...
