My fine fellow / by Cohen, Jennieke,author.;
It's 1830s England, and Culinarians--doyens who consult with society's elite to create gorgeous food and confections--are the créme de la créme of high society. Helena Higgins, top of her class at the Royal Academy, has a sharp demeanor and an even sharper palate--and knows stardom awaits her if she can produce greatness in her final year. [Filipina] Penelope Pickering is going to prove the value of non-European cuisine to all of England...Elijah Little has nothing to his name but a truly excellent instinct for flavors. London merchants won't allow a Jewish boy to own a shop...but he knows with training he can break into the highest echelon of society. When Penelope and Helena meet Elijah, a golden opportunity arises: to pull off a project never seen before, and turn Elijah from a street vendor to a gentleman chef. But Elijah's transformation will have a greater impact on this trio than they originally realize... --Accelerated Reader ARALA Sydney Taylor Silver Award Medalist, 2023.
