Big Small Plates
TX740.P37 2006
"All the recipes in here are 'small plates,' and you need to put three or four of them together to make up a whole meal (or what I call a "small-plates meal"). The dishes are meant to be shared, so that each person can enjoy a few bites of this dish, and a few of that, and not come away feeling stuffed."
