Following the success of Dinner On The Porch and Brunch On The Porch, Le Cordon Bleu trained Chef Jim Voltz has once again put together his favorite menus for entertaining guests on the porch of the little Crystal Lake cottage known as Sunny Shores that he shares with best friend Nancy Myers. But, this time it's all about hors d'oeuvres. Hors d'oeuvres On The Porch contains fifteen of Chef Jim's favorite cocktail party menus, each consisting of recipes for five hors d'oeuvres, beverage recommendations, shopping lists, and tips for hosting a successful party. Cooks will appreciate the detailed recipes, the easy to read print and format, and the lay-flat binding. Enjoy the recipes but don't miss the delightful stories about some of Jim's guests and the beautiful original drawings by Frankfort artist Chris Patterson interspersed with the menus. All the books in the series reflect the warm and cozy atmosphere of the casual but elegant parties Chef Jim hosts throughout the summer.
