“Our heartfelt thanks to the IACP and the IACP Cookbook Awards Committee for this incredible recognition for our book WHAT TO DRINK WITH WHAT YOU EAT. We are awed to see it join the company of previous “Cookbook of the Year” winners and hope that it opens the eyes of even more readers to the pleasures awaiting them through accompanying what they eat with a synergistic beverage that has the power to elevate an ordinary meal to something extraordinary. And our equally heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to making this book what it is, including all the sommeliers and other pairing experts who so generously shared their time and insights with us; our photographer Michael Sofronski whose gorgeous photography brought our words to life.”
