19006878San Francisco; Chicago: Southern Pacific Railroad; Printed by Poole Bros 1900. Duodecimo-size booklet 14.75 x 8.5 cm. 80 pages. Blue and brown ink on pink paper. Two photographic portraits Monsieur and Madame Bégué. Illustrations. List of railway agents. Title from cover. In logo at head of title: Southern Pacific Sunset Route. ~ Evident FIRST EDITION. A souvenir anthology of writings including sixty recipes from two landmark New Orleans restaurants offered for sale to customers traveling the Sunset Route San Francisco–New Orleans by the Southern Pacific Railroad Company. A sampling: Mutton Feet à la Créole Liver à la Bégué Jambalaya of Chicken Codish with White Beans Bisque of Crayfish Creamed Cauliflower Onion Salad Eggplant with Rice and Ham Mayonaise of Celery and Shrimps Pineapple with White Wine. ~ The title displayed on the wrappers is misleading: the atmospheric essays and testimonials – arranged by a literary journalist who contributed to Southern Pacific's promotional magazine Sunset Henry Monroe Mayo 1868-1950 – reveal little regarding the eponymous originator of the recipes or the history of the cuisine that brought her fame. Only pages 47-68 contain recipes by Elizabeth née Elisabetha Kettenring Dutreuil Bégué 1831-1906 the proprietary chef of the beloved restaurant in the Vieux Carré – the second oldest such establishment in New Orleans – located on the Rue de la Levée Decatur Street after 1870 downriver from Jackson Square and across from the French Market. An immigrant from southern Germany she had opened a coffee shop with her husband Louis Dutreuil in 1863. After his death in 1875 she married again and with her second husband Hippolyte Bégué 1842-1917 reopened in the same location with the aim of serving one meal per day – a “second breakfast†beginning at 11:00 a.m. – to accommodate laborers in the meat markets and on the docks who started work at dawn. A fuller history by David Shields is available in his The Culinarians Chicago: University or Chicago Press 2017 pages 270-273. By the mid-1880s trade fairs held in the city were bringing tourists as well and Bégué’s became a destination on its own. Madame Bégué died in 1906. The restaurant continued under management of her daughter but was sold in 1914 to relatives of the family Tujague competitors since 1856 on Decatur Street a few doors away. ~ A shorter tribute with recipes pages 69-74 is accorded another restaurateur presumably Victor Béro d. 1904 an immigrant from Belgium who had presided over Victor's Restaurant since 1873. Mayo appears to confuse the "Monsieur Victor" of his time with the founder and namesake of the establishment Victor Martin 1812-1865; cf. Shields page 136 445. ~ The Sunset Route of the Southern Pacific Company was the southernmost of the transport lines to the West Coast originally contemplated by the series of Pacific Railroad Acts between 1862 and 1866. Of the resulting publicly subsidized corporate consortia that would transform western North America – known collectively as the transcontinental railroads – Southern Pacific was already a mammoth system in 1900 including smaller subsidiaries such as the Texas and New Orleans Railroad and extending across territories that would later become New Mexico and Arizona as well as northwards through Nevada Utah and much of California. The in-house Sunset magazine appears to have been printed close to headquarters in San Francisco but like many publications issued by the transportation industry Mme. Bégué and Her Recipes was printed by Poole Brothers of Chicago who advertised as "railway printers" and also produced tickets brochures and mileage tables. ~ A few pages dog-eared. Very good in publisher's red wrappers decorated in black and white with an image of Madame Chef in kitchen apron. Rare.

69462Tokyo, éd. Hôtel Okura, S.d. (fin des années 90, début des années 2000), in-folio (29 x 42 cm), cartonnage souple ill. en coul. d'une reproduction d'une affiche "Belle Epoque" de Mucha sur fond brun-vert clair, titre en noir, sur la 4e de couv. "hôtel Okura" en noir, 1 feuille (56,5 x 41,5 cm) carton souple crème pliée en deux avec texte en français de coul. verte et texte en japonais de coul. noir, prix en yen, sur le haut de la troisième page un carton collé avec deux suggestions de plats avec les prix, L'hôtel Okura fut construit dans les années 60 à Tokyo. C'est grâce à son chef, Masakichi Ono, que ce restaurant ainsi que cet hôtal fut le plus grand et le plus respecté du Japon voire du monde. Au niveau du bâtiment, c'est un chef-d'œuvre des années 60. Il fut le décor d'un James Bond, "On ne vit que deux fois" en 1967. Les plus grands chefs français comme Paul Bocuse et Joël Robuchon ont honoré la France et le Japon par leur présence pour des dîners et festivals de prestige, comme l'indique notre "menu" ! L'hôtel Okura fut détruit en 2015 pour faire place à un somptueux établissement qui est devenu un des meilleurs du monde. Il faut signaler également que le chef français Frédéric Simonin participa aux "quinzaine gastronomique" en 2011 et 2012 dans ce même hôtel. Joël Robuchon, décédé le 6 août 2018, ouvrit son premier restaurant au Japon, à Tokyo, en 1989, le "Taillevent-Robuchon" qui fut suivi par bien d'autres. Les japonais voyaient en lui un "dieu" absolu de la cuisine française ! Je n'ai pû trouver la date de ce "festival de la cuisine française", qui devrait avoir eu lieu entre les années 1990 et 2000 ! Cet "objet de souvenir" rapproche deux disparus, le grand chef Joël Robuchon et un des plus beaux hôtels du monde ! Il est à considérer comme un "souvenir historique" ! Ce menu - carte ne fut imprimé que pour les invités de ce gala (d'inauguration ou de cloture ?), soit en très petit nombre et est donc EXTREMEMENT RARE !! Très bon état; le cartonnage est très légèrement fâtigué au bords mais le cartonnage avec le menu et la carte est en très bon état !
19649415New York: Harvest House 1964. Small quarto in comb binding 25.5 x 18 cm. 64 pages. Illustrated. Index. FIRST EDITION. A cookbook of regional African recipes by Bea Sandler restaurant consultant and food magazine editor. An expanded edition was released in 1970 by World Publishing Co. with the contracted title African Cookbook and re-issued again in 1993. The introduction to the 1993 edition notes that “The first publication of this book was . the first volume on African cooking to appear in this country or anywhere outside of Africa.†The second half of that statement was incorrect but it was indeed the first published in the U.S. The cookbook originated with Sandler’s role in planning the menu for The Tree Houses Restaurant at the African Pavilion of the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair. Sandler writes in the preface that after being given this task “to our amazement we could not find an African cook book published in America†though they were able to turn up a couple of volumes published in Africa after which “we embarked on a long and complex testing program. We invited people who had been in Africa to participate in the testings and to advise us on the final selection of menu items.†Each chapter of the book “is designed to give you a complete luncheon or dinner as you would get it at the African Pavilion.†For instance one chapter provides a complete “Couscous Menu†consisting of Groundnut Soup Couscous Mauritania a salad and Mango-Banana Sundae. Other recipes in the book include “Tree House†Chutney Curry of Beef Kenya Chicken Moamba Foo-Foo and Nigerian Pancakes as well as six recipes for alcoholic cocktails including Paw-Paw Paradise and Tanganika Tonic. The lower portion of each page prints a description of one of the countries featured at the pavilion. Sandler went on to travel extensively around Africa compiling recipes for her 1970 edition of this cookbook. This original World's Fair publication is very uncommon. One small pencil annotation to margin otherwise internally clean and sound. Photographically illustrated covers are lightly rubbed and with some bumping to corners otherwise fine. Not in Tipton-Martin's The Jemima Code. Harvest House unknown
