Just starting cooking with this book- All Successes so far

I picked up this book for Christmas and just like the previous reviewer said, "Wow!" This book is loaded with incredible meals. FULL of recipes from different cuisines, so there's no chance of us falling into the same old routine. I haven't noticed any labor intensive recipes. For folks that enjoy taking the time to create fresh soups, there's nothing hard or laborious here. The book offers inspiration for combining flavors that might be out of the norm, but the results really hit the spot. Plenty of family friendly recipes as well as recipes for folks looking for a new twist. My favorite part of this book, besides the recipes themselves, is the formatting. Step-by-step color photos and easy to read/follow instructions for every recipe. There's no guessing as to whether we're doing it right. Yep, this one is a keeper for years to come.

Recipes with the "Wow" factor

I've used this book for over 5 years and most of the recipes are truly exquisite. I now use several recipes on a regular basis. There are many recipes with Asian or Thai flavors, also recipes that have unusual but delicious combinations of tastes ( Hungarian lamb and berry soup). This has become my main cookbook. Some of the recipes are on the labor-intensive side, but are worth it if you are inviting people over and want to impress and delight. I've learned a lot about flavor combinations from this book and use the knowledge when making simpler meals that now have the wow factor added in.
