Gilles Barbier says it well (p. 120), the Pièce Montée evokes balance, elevation, fragility. It's joyful too, especially when things go downhill. Let's can add that it speaks of overflow, excess and the inability to stop—creating as well as consuming. It's a classic of French gastronomy—the central piece of the wedding banquet, a tad old France, which we love to knock out, especially when the chou come from Mamiche (a great pastry shop at my corner)... In short, it's different things piled up depending on where we're at and how we approcha it. It allows us to talk about everything we love; Art of course; in all its forms.
