John Doherty Waldorf Astoria Cookbook👍 Recommends
…referencing classic waldorf astoria chef cookbooks for menu inspiration
“I want to give a shout out to John Doherty, who was the longtime executive chef of Waldorf Astoria. And he also produced a great cookbook, which I have on my desk right now. And I have loved, even, you know, I'm a year into doing nothing but dream about this restaurant. And flipping through his book and seeing, you know, his take on these things from, you know, from a few years ago is really interesting.”

Waldorf Astoria Cookbook (1896 edition)👍 Recommends
…discussing original waldorf salad recipe and how to reinterpret it modernly
“A friend of mine, Garrett Oliver, was kind enough to give me a copy, an original copy of the 1896 Waldorf Astoria cookbook. Oh my gosh. First thing I did was flip into, you know, through that book to see, is it really such a thing? Was there really such a thing as a Waldorf salad?”
