Why read it?
1 author picked White House Family Cookbook as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is written by, IMO, the best chef ever to have served at the White House. I was fortunate to have been Chef Haller’s boss during my time at the White House. Henry retired after 21 years of flawless service and worked in the Johnston, Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan White Houses. An incredible talent with a positive, pleasant temperament, everyone loved Chef Haller.
From Christopher's list on The best White House books from a White House insider’s perspective.
