My Lacanche is my favorite thing in our house. Its elegant simplicity and superb craftsmanship make it a joy to cook on. I especially love the very large burner, which heats up large pots of water in no time at all. I make jams, applesauce and tomato sauce and the canning process requires heating a very large pot of water. The Lacanche does this in a snap! We also turn out absolutely perfect roast chicken from the fabulous ovens. The entire team at Art Culinaire has been a joy to work with. I can’t wait to build another house, so that I can choose another Lacanche!
