Maman: The Cookbook

Part love letter, part cookbook, Maman: The Cookbook captures the heartwarming magic of the beloved café with 100 cozy, crowd-pleasing recipes. Inspired by the charm of French café culture and the comfort of home, Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte share favorites from their NYC, Montreal, and Toronto kitchens—think Banana-Lavender Cornmeal Waffles, Cumin Chickpea Salad, and those famously Nutty Chocolate Chip Cookies (yes, Oprah-approved). Named one of the best cookbooks of the year by Taste of Home, each page blends rustic elegance with everyday approachability, offering everything from savory quiches and dressed-up sandwiches to showstopping cakes and soulful brunch staples. With its warm, inviting tone and beautiful design, this book is perfect as a gift—or destined to become your most-loved, batter-splattered kitchen companion. Hardcover, 256 pages
