Whether you’re hosting a casual get-together with friends or throwing an outdoor shindig, no one can teach you the art of fiesta like celebrity chef and Bravo's Top Chef Masters winner Rick Bayless.

In this companion collection to seasons six and seven of his public television series Mexico--One Plate at a Time, Bayless offers the key to unforgettable parties that will have guests clamoring for repeat invitations. There are recipes for small-dish snacking (Mushroom Ceviche, Devilish Shrimp), dynamic cocktails to get the party started (Champagne Margarita, Sizzling Mojito), and Bayless's signature takes on Mexican street food (Grilled Pork Tacos al Pastor, Roasted Vegetable Enchiladas).

Fiesta at Rick's presents 150 diverse preparations organized into easy-to-follow chapters, but it's far more than a collection of recipes. With four complete, can't-miss menus for parties ranging from a Luxury Guacamole Bar Cocktail Party for 12 to a Classic Mexican Mole Fiesta for 24, Bayless has all your friends covered.

Bayless's entertaining blueprint eliminates the guesswork, so you can let your inspiration run free. Fiesta at Rick's is required reading for everyone who loves opening their home to friends and good times.

"Rick Bayless is el mejor cocinero! His flavors are so intense and layered that each bite brings tears to your eyes and that’s not just the chili peppers! I love everything about Rick; I’m so happy he shares his knowledge of Mexican cuisine with all of us. He’s inspired many of my friends--every age, size, shape, male, female--as well as myself to have more fiestas!”--Rachael Ray
