HOLLYWOOD DISH
Celebrities and socialites have craved the best of everything from clothes to cars since the 1920's when Hollywood became the center of the universe for the movie industry. Along with their quest for the best and to keep their minds and bodies finely tuned, the stars have also craved the best natural and healthy foods available. Akasha Richmond's new book, HOLLYWOOD DISH: More Than 150 Delicious, Healthy Recipes From Hollywood's Chef to the Stars (Avery/Penguin Group, January 2006) chronicles Hollywood's love affair with natural and healthy foods from the beginning. Richmond treats readers with the scoop on how Hollywood's elite, from stars of the silver screen like Greta Garbo and Cary Grant, to today's hottest celebs like Renée Zellweger and Tom Cruise dine and stay healthy. Having researched this fascinating subject extensively for three years, Richmond weaves a delicious history of healthy eating in Hollywood with tales of the stars' favorite restaurants and recipes. HOLLYWOOD DISH is filled with more than 150 of Richmond's take on Hollywood's best recipes, including favorites like Pumpkin Seed Crusted Cod, Wild Salmon and Artichoke Salad with Green Tea Ranch Dressing, Sundance Chocolate Torte and Lemon Almond Pudding. The recipes are easy and fun - perfect for everyday meals and special occasions. HOLLYWOOD DISH will delight and inform those interested in Hollywood's exciting lifestyle to those interested in cooking healthful and creative fare for friends and family.
