Modernist Cuisine is now shipping from booksellers

March 3rd, 2011

Update

This set will look great on any bookshelfWe are happy to announce that Modernist Cuisine has begun ship­ping to cus­tomers well ahead of its announced release date of March 14. The book is avail­able for order from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kitchen Arts & Letters, and other book­sellers, who will send the first copies to those who pre­ordered. Because of the unex­pect­edly high vol­ume of pre­orders, stocks of the book will be very lim­ited for a while. New ship­ments are on their way from the press and will arrive in March and April.

  1. I under­stand the short­age but I noticed on my Amazon account on Sunday, March 6th that I was going to get my copy today, March 9th. I ordered December 19, 2010. But this morn­ing I got an email from Amazon say­ing I wasn’t going to get it until April 18th.

    I’m so depressed I am head­ing down to Safeway (I live in Silicon Valley) to get a box of frozen White Castle sliders...boo hoo.

    • Have you heard any updates on when the next set of book will be pub­lished? I heard sep­tem­ber but hope­ing sooner..

      Thanks!

  2. Alas... sim­i­lar boat. It was to be a wed­ding gift. Thought I had ordered with plenty of time (month and months ago).

  3. hello ... no the book is not avaible from ama­zon ... nor barnes and noble where they say it will be avaible in May ??? i pre­order on ama­zon in sep­tem­ber last year ??? hope the book is as good as the adver­tis­ing .... if ever ... i find that pretty boring.

    • Eliane:

      If you pre­ordered in September from Amazon, then your book should be on its way to you shortly. Amazon says they are ship­ping to cus­tomers in the same order that cus­tomers put in their requests. Fortunately, you were one of the early ones!

      Thanks for your patience.

  4. here my pre­order on ama­zon and their recent com­ment “not yet shipped ship­ping esti­mate april 14 .............. deliv­ery 18 .. i don’t what to say, i am patient, those tech­nics remain me some­thing ......... can­not point my fin­ger

  5. FWIW, I placed my ama­zon order on August 15 and was noti­fied that it had shipped today (march 11).

  6. it’s really a mess ... i don’t think at that price is our prob­lem to think about how many copies you print etc etc ... i really hope that the con­tent of the book doesn’t reflect that lack of pro­fes­sion­al­ism, you start this thread with this com­ment

    i don’t really think we should watch all this mar­ket busi­ness, we are not here to make you the most you can ................... we just wait for a book about mod­ern cui­sine ... the real cui­sine, not this one
