This book will help nail your reputation as a seriously good cook. --Prue Leith, CBE
Product Description
To celebrate six decades of Britain's bestselling restaurant guide, the team behind 'The Good Food Guide' has compiled this fully-illustrated recipe book featuring 60 of the UK's leading chefs.
Inside, you will find a range of sophisticated starters, mains and desserts, together with fascinating insights into the chefs and their groundbreaking restaurants. Each chef has been selected for their outstanding contribution to the British dining scene, whether they are culinary giants such as Gordon Ramsay and Raymond Blanc or up-and-coming talents such as Will Holland and Guy Manning.
Step-by-step recipes, often signature dishes, range from Claude Bosi's Hibiscus tarte au chocolat, via Angela Hartnett's scallops with pumpkin purée and candied walnuts, Philip Howard's classic herb-crusted saddle of lamb with shallot purée and rosemary, and James Graham's blood orange delice with beetroot sorbet and chocolate powder.

Format:Hardcover
I have bought 5 copies for family and friends so far. I had never heard of The Good Food Guide until I saw this book, and now I have become a member! I was recommended by a friend who had bought the guide and the recipe book to get it for some inspiration for a dinner party I was throwing. It has 60 of the top chefs in and I have already cooked three meals courtesy of Heston (Blumenthal), Gordon (Ramsay)and Angela (Hartnett). It looks lovely in my kitchen which justifies its purchase! I was concerned the recipes would be difficult however it is so well written it makes it a doddle to follow. Couldn't recommend it more.

Format:Hardcover
I really liked this - there are sixty restaurant recipes, all by top chefs from across the UK. They have clear step-by-step instructions and list the ingredients for each individual part of the dish, so are easy to follow. There is also a short piece on each chef; their philosophies on food, how they got into cooking and so on, which is a nice background to the recipes themselves. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes cooking. The book itself is beautiful (clever Escher inspired design on the cover, lovely pictures inside) so would also make a great gift.

This book gives you the opportunity to enjoy high-end restaurant food at home at a fraction of the price you would pay in the restaurants concerned. The written style varies with the establishments but the recipes are generally easy to follow, if some of the techniques are a bit tricky for a run-of-the-mill home cook like me.

More for the coffee table than the kitchen

Not just for the coffee table
At first glance the book appears to be a bit elitist 'foodie' and more suitable for the coffee table than the kitchen. Read more

Not a cook book per se, but a good informal read
This is a strange book. The cover is some kind of laminated card/plastic and I found this a confusing first impression. That's probably just me though! Read more

Beautiful book
This is a lovely book, filled with gorgeous pictures; and sadly completely unrealistic recipes for your average home cook, which is what I am. Read more

This is a lovely book. I loved the illustrations and enjoyed the long forewords to each recipe. Not your usual recipe book by a long way, so if you are looking for another 1001... Read more
