Format:Paperback
The World Food Cafe book brings together much of the best regional vegetarian cooking from around the world with beautiful photographs and simple to follow recipes. I have cooked a number of the recipes and really enjoyed the result, and having visited the Indian subcontinent have enjoyed recreating local dishes.
A small word of warning: some of the recipes contain what might be considered rather exotic ingredients by your local supermarket (a pinch of Hing anyone?). However, if you live an area where you can access 'ethnic' food shops that shouldn't pose a problem - and might in fact open your eyes to the delights of avoiding the mainstream supermarkets.
If you enjoy cooking, and have a taste for travel and 'ethnic' food, this book is a delight. Put away bottled sauces and get cooking. Highly recommended!

Inspiring and delicious - brings back memories of my own travels and the desire for new ones!
15 Feb 2007
Format:Paperback
I absolutley love this book - so much that I keep giving it as a gift and reccomending it to friends over and over again. I've travelled through many of the countries in the book and the writers tales of how they came across each dish really bring back memories of my own adventures and the desire for new ones! It's essentially a culinary travelogue. Also fantastic are their vegetarian adaptions of classically meat dishes which I was unable to try on my travels as I'm vegetarian but can now attempt at home. The photographs of the locations and the food are inspiring and the recipes easy to follow. I've used the book for casual meals and dinner parties alike.

Whilst I am not a vegetarian, I do like my food to taste as good as it can. Nestled snugly above Neal's Yard, near Covent Garden in London, is the small and friendly World Food Cafe. After first attending their mighty benches on a whim, I discovered the tasty treats that lurked within were good. Many more visits were made to the Cafe, and many chums were also converted. The food was always great - the menu is a shapeshifting entity, changing from visit to visit depending on what is cooking, making each meal a voyage of discovery. I've yet to discover something there that didn't go down with contented slurps.
So, overjoyed was I when I noticed this book. Simply put, this publication is a must-have. Every recipe is exciting, every page covered with wonderful photography or anecdotes. All the meals are fairly simple to cook, although some require a little preparation. Some may be daunted by the long list of ingredients, but do please note that many of these are, in fact, spices and so-on. Once you've stocked your cupboard up, you will giggle like a happy baboon as your dearest chums swoon at your culinary genius. For us in the UK, most of the items will be fairly easy to track down in your local Supermarket - having said that, one or two may require searching for Asian shops.
I do like this book - I know not everyone will like it quite as much due to the emphasis on the more spicey end of the market. For those with tastebuds that work, though, this is a must.
