Think &lsquo;grand caf&eacute;&rsquo; and the image that immediately springs to mind is a decadent, smoke-filled place populated by coffee-drinking thinkers, writers and artists in 1930s Europe. Along with the brasserie, the grand caf&eacute; combines an opulent setting exclusively for the everyman. Z&eacute;del is such a place. Housed in a 1915 hotel off London&rsquo;s Piccadilly Circus, it was restored to its former grandeur and re-opened in 2012 with all the charm and distinction of Art Deco Paris.In this book, A. A. Gill explores the origins of the grand caf&eacute; and pays homage to the character of Z&eacute;del. Much more than just a restaurant, Z&eacute;del houses a bustling caf&eacute; leading to a sweeping marble staircase, at the bottom of which are the Crazy Coqs cabaret, the Bar Am&eacute;rican cocktail bar, and the magnificent brasserie itself.Forty iconic brasserie recipes are included in the book, such as Soupe &agrave; l&rsquo;oignon, Moules marini&egrave;res, Boeuf bourguignon, Profiteroles and Tarte au citron.Period photography and artwork help to capture the mood of this remarkable and fascinating venue.

Inspired by classic illustrated botanical volumes, this is a modern celebration of wild, garden and exotic flowers. A single photographic image captures the intricate detail, form, texture and colour of each flower. The hauntingly beautiful photographs - as beautiful as the most captivating still-life painting - pay respect to classic Victorian botanical illustrations but they are paired, for a younger audience, with succinct, quirky text about the culture and historical interest of each variety of plant. Every example is the most perfect representation of a flower and, thanks to its composition and detail, it will trigger in everyone a fresh desire to look around and feel enriched by the beauty in our world - in our gardens, window boxes, flower shops and parks. Broken down into chapters based on floral characteristics or symbolism, this is a stunning gift book that taps into the growing interest in the natural world around us - its flora and fauna - and the associated benefits on our wellbeing, and the powerful pursuit of quiet, mindful activities. Whether for dipping into, or poring over, these pages will bring pleasure to anyone who loves the beauty of flowers, art, design, contemplation or reading.
