### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Dated before it was ever published
  

*by W***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2009*

The food styling in this book is extraordinarily dated and obsessively symmetrical. The author is clearly talented and years ago these designs would have wowed the crowds at weddings, conventions and awards banquets. But that day has passed. It is as if the book made the rounds of publishers and after being rejected by many, finally, 40 years later, was accepted.But it was too late. For our time, these designs are too formal, too contrived and just over the top. The author opens with 9 "Rules to Garnish By," but forgot to consider rule number 6 in most of his projects: "Over decorating is as bad as no decoration." "Garnish" is not the same as "garish."The garnishes in this book appear to be directed at events, buffets and banquets. There is nothing in this book as casual as floating a tiny bundle of julienned vegetables on a cup of soup, or using sauces or colorful bits of food as background on the plate.John Gargone is a talented food artist. While this should not be your only book on decorative food carving, it would fit well into a personal library on food decoration. Techniques don't go out of style, and if you master the detailed, photographically illustrated step-by-step instructions here, you can bring your own artistic flair and produce beautiful results.Whatever John Gargone's talents, he was poorly served by his publisher, who did not give him good editing, good typography or good photos.This book is not well designed. The fonts are strange. Descenders on the headings blunder into the text below. Many of the headings switch from blue to yellow to green in mid-word.Reproduction of the photographs reminds me of 4-color food photos published in recipe books 50 years ago. But there was never an era, even then, when this photography would have been considered state of the art, or even professional. Today, with a copyright date as recent as 2004, these photos must be judged abominable.It saddens me to write such a harsh review for the work of a well-respected, hard-working and successful chef such as John Gargone. But these reviews are written for prospective purchasers of books, not for the authors.Instead of this book I would recommend Gourmet Garnishes by Mickey Baskett. Or better yet, search Amazon for this book's title, and consider some of the other books that show up in the search.

    A lot of ideas but they will take a fair amount of time to do.

I am happy with the book but notice that the bulk of the items take a LOT of work.
