Tucker   Review #1648 - Dated: 10th of December, 2006
  Author: Tucker

I LOVE food books... especially ones with a variety of foods to try. Books that focus on one particular theme tend to leave me cold, so it was witrh great pleasure that I flicked through this one.

Of all the recipes, the one that caught my attention the most would have to have been the "Super Duper Louise Cake" on page 130... I have always enjoyed this delightful slice, despite my lack of enjoyment of most berries. Yeah, strange I agree, but theat's the way it goes. However, one recipe that caught my eye for a different reason was the Kaffir lime chicken kebabs. I have never managed to make a decent kebab mix that survives cooking, and this one look divine, and is on the menu for the next time I feel experimental... IF we ever get any decent BBQ weather!

Overall, I would say this would be an excellent addition to any culinary wannabe's library. Even experienced cooks would probably find something new in here... a new twist on a classic dish (the 4-Cheese Baked Maccaroni on page 70 for example) so it's worth a read through if nothing else.
