Gorgeous Cookbook

This is truly one of the most beautiful cookbooks I have encountered. The recipes are unusual and fun to make. Highly recommended.

African Kitchen is great!

I think that this cookbook represents the best of a chef who has to cook inventive meals under demanding conditions in the African bush and countryside. It is amazing that the meals come out as pictured in anyone's kitchen without the dust, bugs and wild animals that the chef had to deal with when she created them originally. Great book to round out your international collection of cookbooks in your library. Excellent book and I highly recommend it!

The African Kitchen

An inspiring book in every way! Get this book if you are interested in real Africa and African cooking. The recipes are great and the photo's give you real insight into the safari travel and the bush lifestyle.

Will make you want to take a safari

I really have enjoyed this book. It gives you an insight into African cooking and the beautiful scenery. I had the pleasure of meeting Josie Stow at Tswalu and sampled some of the recipes in the book. They are incredible. Most of the items are easy to prepare and the photos will make you want to go there!

From a South African

As a South African and having spent time in the USA, I tried to think of ingredients etc that one would need if you were living outside of Africa, most seem easy to obtain. It's a beautiful book both in recipes and photos.Being a professional photographer it's a fun book to look at for the photos as well as different style of cooking. Most recipe books are static and don't motivate me into purchasing it, but this one caught me. It has a great African feel. Worth buying.
