From the inside dust jacket: "Bloomingdale's is more than a store. It is an attitude toward life and living and that attitude is style. Entertaining with style is what The Bloomingdale's Book of Entertaining is all about. It tells you everything you need to know to give great parties, from a simple continental breakfast to an elegant formal dinner...the do's and don'ts of how to entertain fashionably from morning to midnight.
Highlighting this book is a delightful series of interviews & photographs of some of the country's best-known hosts and hostesses whose creative and original approach to entertaining is characteristic of the Bloomingdale style. James Beard, Pauline Trigere, Madhur Jaffrey, Marina de Brantes, Helen McCully, Geoffrey Holder and other hosts par excellence take us into their homes showing us what kind of parties they like to give, what they serve and how they create the special visual aspects and atmosphere that make a party memorable. Favorite food ideas from these homes are presented in the recipe section with clear, carefully tested instructions.
This book is packed with tips on everything-from check lists for party givers to the kinds of kitchen equipment,china and glassware to have on hand, from the presentation of drink to hints on keeping the fun and frivolity flowing. A guide to stocking the bar and a series of stunning color photos of table settings by Bloomingdale's famous designers will offer inspiration to those looking for bright new ideas on table decor."
