Kate Spade New York: All In Good Taste

filled with how-tos, personal essays, anecdotes, recipes, and a liberal dash of style, all in good taste will transform you into the hostess everyone wants an invitation from. the book covers the essential lost arts—how to shuck an oyster, curate a vibrant guest list, guide a dinner-table discussion—right alongside modern conundrums such as Instagram etiquette at dinner. whether you entertain a little or a lot or just love being the person everyone wants to sit next to at dinner, all in good taste is the modern classic you’ll treasure for years.
