      By Forbes Travel Guide Editor Michelle Doucette

      November 29, 2012

      A Table at Le Cirque: Stories and Recipes from New York’s Most Legendary Restaurant
      This debut cookbook from Four-Star Le Cirque New York offers recipes for the restaurant’s most iconic dishes (including Daniel Boulud’s black bass with barolo sauce) alongside juicy stories from four decades as a see-and-be-seen eatery.

      Bouchon Bakery
      For his latest tome, Forbes Travel Guide Tastemaker Thomas Keller teams up with executive pastry chef Sebastien Rouxel and shares secrets to bakery favorites like TKOs (Bouchon’s take on Oreos). For an extra holiday treat, catch Keller’s book tour through early December and have the chef sign a copy.

      InterContinental Kitchen Cookbook
