Introduction:
"We would like to state clearly that, beginning with the very first recipes, LES DINERS DE GALA, with its recipes and its illustrations, is uniquely devoted to the pleasures of Taste; Don't look for dietetic formulas here."

"We intend to ignore those charts and tables in which chemistry takes the place of gastronomy. If you are a disciple of one of those calorie-counters who turn the joys of eating into a form of punishment, close this book at once; it is too lively, too aggressive and far too impertinent for you."
