In this handsome sequel to the original City Tavern Cookbook, chef Walter Staib, proprietor of America's earliest gourmet restaurant, focuses on the baked goods and sweets that must have pleased the signers of the Declaration of Independence as much as they delight modern palates: Apple-Fig Crumble, Vanilla Bean Blanc-Mange, Martha Washington's Chocolate Mousse Cake, Thomas Jefferson's Sweet Potato Biscuits, and more than 175 other delicious colonial treats.

Title: A tasty history of Philadelphia's City Tavern
Review: I love City Tavern and to be able to make some of their recipes is very enjoyable. This is a wonderful book...not just for the items to make, but for the historic background of the building that is described within. The recipes are easy to follow and give a window into our ancestors' past. As a history buff, this was satisfying all the way around.
