The Lever House Cookbook offers an unprecedented look into the innovative design and the designers of the building and restaurant.

Dan Silverman believes that fresh, sophisticated cuisine needn't be overly complicated, and all of the more than 125 recipes here prove that the perfect combination of ingredients results in bold new flavors.

• Hamachi with Soy-Sherry Reduction offers a beautiful balance of salty and sweet
• A splash of citrus Vinaigrette brightens a rich, buttery Alaskan Black Cod
• Risotto al Barolo sings when studded with caramelized butternut squash
• The recipe for Grilled Lamb Chops redefines the hefty, juicy meal
• Familiar tastes such as caramel and cinnamon reach new heights in Lever House's signature desserts, like the Apple Cheesecake Crisp

With vivid photographs of the dishes and modern and arhival images of the venue, The Lever House Cookbook is a timeless monument to New York style.
