Another great chunky book, this time dealing with home style cooking. I broken up into breakfast, lunch, everyday, dinner and sweets.
The breakfasts section is a bit weak but has things like fruit crepes, eggs, huevos rancheros and fruit. It is a biit light on and drags down this book overall.
The lunch section mainly deals with salads and gourmet sandwiches, with all the usual salads found here and some great sandwiches such as the steak sandwich with salsa verde which is awesome.
The everynight section is a hidge podge of simple familiar dishes from all over the world such as fried rice, nachos, laksa, minestrone and pastitsio, seems to be a bistro food type section
The dinner section is heavier and heartier than the everynight section, with recipes such as coq au vin, braised shanks, silverside with parsley sauce and some steaks. Smallish section and really could have just been combined with every night for one dinner section.
Finally the desert section again has familiar deserts such as trifle, zabaglione, rice pudding, creme caramel and chocolate pudding.
Overall a nice book if you like familiar exotic meals, but for those wanting that bit extra may find it a bit lacking. But as with all these books recipes are well tested and work.
