The Sequence In Which Food Has Been Served At Meals Has Changed Greatly Over The Centuries And Has Also Varied From One Country To Another, A Fact Noted In Virtually Every Culinary History. Most Food Writers Have Treated The More Significant Alterations As Standalone Events. The Most Famous Example Of Such A Change Occurred In The Nineteenth Century, When Service La Franaisein Which The Stunning Presentation Made A Great Show But Diners Had To Wait To Be Servedgave Way To Service La Russe, In Which Platters Were Passed Among Diners Who Served Themselves. But In Arranging The Meal, The Late Culinary Historian Jeanlouis Flandrin Argues That Such A Change In The Order Of Food Service Is Far From A Distinct Event. Instead He Regards It As A Historical Phenomenon, One That Happened In Response To Socioeconomic And Cultural Factorsanother Mutation In An Everchanging Sequence Of Customs. As France'S Most Illustrious Culinary Historian, Flandrin Has Become A Cult Figure In France, And This Posthumous Book Is Not Only His Final Word But Also A Significant Contribution To Culinary Scholarship. A Foreword By Beatrice Fink Places Flandrin'S Work In Context And Offers A Personal Remembrance Of This French Culinary Hero.
