You love the show, now get the cookbook and get inspired

Chef Chuck Hughes cooks in his restaurants all week, making sure that every dish he sends out at his two Montreal spots, Garde Manger and Le Bremner, is perfect, and that every client leaves happy. He cooks for love and for fun, and what he cooks up makes for fabulous and engaging television viewing on the hit Food Network Canada and Cooking Channel (U.S.) show Chuck’s Day Off.

This cookbook features over 100 recipes: favourite dishes and menus from the long-running show, plus all-new recipes developed just for the book. The flavour-packed dishes are grouped into menus and connected to stories that Chuck tells, providing a behind-the-scenes look at Chuck’s life and the challenges he faces in balancing his dedication to great food with the daily realities of running restaurants. Food lovers and cooks of all levels will fall in love with Chuck’s open and honest cooking and easy and incredibly addictive style of comfort food.

In 2006, CHUCK HUGHES and two friends opened their first restaurant, Garde-Manger, in old Montreal. A fanatical clientele made up of locals and tourists keeps the place hopping; everyone is in search of Chuck’s magical take on comfort food classics. Chuck defeated Iron Chef Bobby Flay in the battle of Canadian lobster and starred in The Next Iron Chef: Super Chefs. His show Chuck’s Day Off airs in over eighty countries, as does his follow up series, Chuck’s Week Off. Recently, he completed the first season of his primetime show, Chuck’s Eat the Street, for Cooking Channel, and he is currently discussing another series for Food Network Canada.
