5.0 out of 5 stars The must-have volume on Italian Food, 26 Sep 2006
I have not been able to put this book down (and believe me, it's very heavy!) since I received it a couple of weeks ago. It is a wonderful mixture of recipes, detailed descriptions of distinctive ingredients like parmesan, olive oil and pasta and stories and reminiscences from Giorgio's life. While it is eminently practical, it also includes recipes for many signature dishes from Locanda Locatelli as well as shortcuts and adaptations for cooking at home.
Along with Marcella Hazan's 'Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking', you could not have a better guide to Italian food.

5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless bible of Italian Food, 6 Nov 2006
This book will still be around when Jamie Oliver is just a dinner ladies' distant memory.

'Made In Italy' is densely packed with fascinating and insightful information regarding Italy and its food, for example there are 24 pages studying each aspect of just one dish - the classic risotto (then a further fifteen risotto recipes and even more variations).

But while this is a comprehensive book, it isn't complicated. Locatelli's charisma and style - so beloved of the celebrity set - oozes from the page, and the range of recipes is enough to turn you from non-chef, to sous-chef.

You get a sense that this a book which has been really honed (I read an interview with Locatelli that said he had been making it for five years), and is in marked contrast to the Gordon Ramsay/Jamie Oliver/Gary Rhodes method of releasing a book every six months as though it's a magazine. It's also really beautifully designed and photographed. It's a perfect gift for food lover - ideally you'd want one for the kitchen, and one for your coffee table.
