Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Martyn's Menu Dictionary
It should also he remarked that this book is not intended to take the place of works like Fellows' C'hef's Reminder and a Selection of Dishes, or Senn's French Menus, both of which excellent books are in purpose a dictionary of dishes - instead of, like this, a dictionary of words and phrases.
The making of the book was suggested by the little volume entitled Latin de Cuisine, published several years ago, and in conception (before this work commenced to grow to its present larger size), I found many suggestions and a good deal of assist ance in a study of its pages.
