Madeleines in Manhattan by Colette Rossant is a delightful memoir with recipes, chronicling her journey as a young Frenchwoman adjusting to life in 1950s New York. Newly married and unfamiliar with American customs, she struggles with limp sandwiches and iceberg lettuce but soon discovers the vibrant culinary world of Greenwich Village—Jewish delis, Chinatown’s dim sum, and Italian pastries on Mulberry Street. As she navigates love, family, and a new culture, food becomes her connection to home and identity. This beautifully written memoir captures the tastes, memories, and experiences that shaped her life and career as a food writer.
