All hail the trinity of modern cuisine. Fisher’s grandnephew draws from his great-aunt’s journals and letters to reconstruct the serendipitous 1970 get-together of the time’s greatest culinary innovators, a meeting that would incontrovertibly change the course of American cooking. Like eavesdropping on a salon where palate finally shook pretentiousness.
