It is food that can compete with noise and party hubbub, food that will arrest and create conversation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The culinary philosophy that food is sexy, Sep 15 2004
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tongue Twisters: Sexy Food for Stylish People (Paperback)
Gord Martin is the owner and chef of two Vancouver restaurants - Bin 941 and Bin 942. The culinary philosophy underscoring Martin's menus is that food is sexy and that the preparation of dishes, and act of dining, are sensual acts whether the setting is an intimate dinner for two or a celebratory blowout for dozens. From Scallop Ceviche with Minted Watermelon and Coconut Foam; BBQ Portobello Mushroom Cutlet and Seasonal Vegetables with Roast Garlic Balsamic Jam; Ibarra Mexican Chocolate and Bailey's Creme Brulee; to Wild Mushroom Reggiano Risotto with Truffle Oil Drizzle and Portobello Chips; Pan-Seared Wild Sockeye Salmon with Candied Shallot Beaujolais Reduction, Wild Rice Waffles, and Fresh Clipped Greens; and Cheesecake with Banana Foster Sauce, Tongue Twisters is a unique and very special addition to the cookbook collection of any adventurous kitchen cook!
