Publisher's Remarks:
Interest in lounge culture is nearly as high as during the golden age of the '50s and '60s. And even lounge lizards have to eat -- and drink. This humorous guide to entertaining, first published in 1950, is a retro period piece that will satisfy the most discriminating tastes, no matter how pickled. Recipes are presented entirely in pictures, step by step, from conception to perfection -- and all with deliciously dry wit. Easy-to-make breakfasts-for-two, canapes, barbecue suppers, picnic food, midnight repasts, and, of course, drinks -- before-dinner drinks, drinks with dinner, after-dinner drinks, and drinks having nothing to do with meals -- are ideal for men with kitchen "no"-how
