Little Treasures is a small antique shop in Forest Park that specializes in cookbooks. Classics like Julia Child, James Beard, Jacque Pepin, and out-of-print rare stuff like very early edition Brillat-Savarin. I just picked up a hardcover copy of "The Illustrated Escoffier" last time I was there. They're closing at the end of May. The store has shelves and shelves filled with cookbooks, and the very gracious owner has even more at home if you can't find what you're looking for.
