Kathy Kriger is an entrepreneur, a cook, and a woman with a dream and the tenacity to get what she wants. I was there, and I saw it—Rick's Café in Morocco.

A great read deliciously topped with great recipes. Thank you, Kathy, for 're-creating' Rick's and taking us along for the ride."—Monika Henreid, daughter of Paul Henreid (Victor Laszlo)"A cultural adventure that has all the twists and turns of a Moroccan medina, this wry and charming story of what it takes to bring to life a cinema legend is a smoky love song played with soul on Sam's piano. For true aficionados, the cocktail recipes are included."—Tilar J. Mazzeo, New York Times bestselling author of The Widow Clicquot: The Story of a Champagne Empire and the Woman Who Ruled It "An extraordinary tale of perseverance, guts, and good humor with more twists and turns than the movie Casablanca itself. It's a great read!"—Suzanna Clarke, author of A House in Fez: Building a Life in the Ancient Heart of Morocco
