Customer Reviews

Simply the best -of British!

This is so much more than a cookbook. From a writer with over 160 titles to her credit you may expect same old, same old - but you'd be wrong. There's something to offer to everyone, young and old, coupled with the lessons on British culinary history. Its almost like a novel with recipes. A bonus here is that the recipes actually work! So if you are fed up with the sleek tomes of recent years, you could do worse than have a peek at Marguerite. You'll be in for a real treat.
