With an insatiable appetite for travel, food and new experiences, Christine Manfield has traversed the globe in search of inspiration.

This Chef Impresses ME!
15 Nov 2009
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I cannot believe how much Christine Manfield and I have in common when it comes to taste in food. She has an incredible knowledge of nearly all of my favorite cuisines, and her recipes are second to none. I had a chance to look at this cookbook when I was in Brisbane recently and I was truly impressed. She covers nearly all the pacific rim countries, the middle east, even mexico. Each section has travel information, history, and again:
incredible recipes. It is also a nice mix of both complex 5 star recipes to weekly meal recipes, and when made with the proper ingredients, will surely impress. Nearly every recipe is stellar, and the book also has a "staples" section which contains more quality recipes in it than many cookbooks in their entirety.
ALSO.... Check out Spice, and Stir (My favorite in some ways, cause I use it the most), and also the Paramount books if you can find them. Go Christine!

My Go-To Book for entertaining
29 Feb 2012
Format:Hardcover
When I entertain I love to create an experience for my guests and Christine Manfield provides it in bucketloads. Along with flair, style, and above all, sublime flavours. I have all her books and I use them all, but if some mythical, mean, cookbook-hating monster came and told me I'd have to choose one, just one, of Christine's books to keep, I think this would be the one (although said monster would have a very hard time pulling Paramount Desserts out of my desperate grasp!).
The food is spectacular but not all of it is time-consuming or impossible for all but the most talented cooks. If you want easy, make the congee (Pork Rice Porridge) or the Pearl Rice Balls. Definitely try the Masala Prawns on Lemon Pine nut Pilaf. Amazingly good.
You can theme a dinner around one country or region knowing everything works well and will take the experience one step further than other cookbooks will take you.
In case you haven't worked it out Christine Manfield, I'm a fan! I've just got your new Tasting India recently and am loving it too. Well done - you're amazing!

Wish they'd wrapped it properly
31 Mar 2011
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Was really looking forward to receiving this book after seeing a friend's copy so was happy to order from overseas.
Unfortunately when it arrived Amazon hadn't wrapped it properly and the book was trashed, the packaging which is a big selling factor with this book was completely broken. My advice - don't buy anything from Amazon.
