Old wine, new bottles?

The L.A. Times blog "Daily Dish" today described a meal at a very trendy restaurant with a twist: it's based on recipes from the original Fanny Farmer cookbook.



They blog: "It's sort of comforting to know that the woman also known as 'the mother of level measurements,' who published her cookbook in 1896, is inspiring chefs at a restaurant in Hollywood in 2010 to make chicken pot pie and fruit rolypoly's."
