Customer Reviews

delicious and beautiful

-I received this book after a backpacking trip to SEAsia - the pictures are beautiful and remind us of our trip - I have since made every single recipe in the book and can say that they are not hard to make, and most are absolutely delicious (99.99% of them) - this is my all time favorite cookbook, and I will soon order a second copy since I am covering the first copy in fish sauce and chili seeds-

awesome asian cookbook

Coffee-table cookbook is an absolute bargain for the quality, content and photography. Gives you an overview of different countries and authentic recipes with commonly found substitute ingredients if needed. I love asian food and so many asian restaurants have blended the best of different countries to give everyone what they like. That's what this cookbook does so beautifully.

Awesome!!

You can't take your eyes off of the pictures. The photos are beautiful and rich. It's not just a cookbook. Of all the cookbooks on Southeast Asian cooking that we received for Christmas, I wish we had received this one. It's a great price. Other stores sell it for full price. The book gives wonderful details about the culture of various countries in the region. The recipes are very easy to follow and the food photography is sumptuous. All the food looks so tasty. I don't really like to cook, but I shall start trying the recipes as soon as I get the book.
