Santos is a judge on Food Network's Chopped and the founder of New York restaurants Beauty & Essex, the Stanton Social, and Vandal. Writing with veteran author Rodgers (Kaffeehaus), Santos debuts bold recipes that can be mixed and matched for family-style dining. Cooks who love to entertain and throw parties can craft memorable communal meals from such dishes as crab corn dogs with Old Bay aioli, tuna sushi satays with jicama-peanut slaw, pasta with spicy veal and lamb bolognese, and red velvet Twinkies with crème fraîche filling. Indulgent, playful starters are the star of this cookbook, which also covers cocktails, brunches, sides, mains, and more.
VERDICT A great source for surprising crowd-pleasers. Think French onion soup reimagined as soup dumplings.
