Rezensionen / Stimmen
"I like the cookbook because I would actually use it. Some cookbooks are meant for reading, some for browsing and flipping through, while some are packed with recipes that I can see myself cooking from. This is the latter. This crab with tamarind and chili immediately caught my attention. The reasons are simple: I am a huge fan of crab and the recipe looks absolutely mouthwatering and delicious." --RasaMalaysia.com blog "This is a beautiful book with lots of gorgeous photos. I love that the dishes are usually photographed as they'd be served and not in high-fashion, stylized photos. Simple food served on simple dishes as they should be." --Sandra's Kitchen Nook blog "Acclaimed Vietnamese chef and restauranteur Nhut Huynh shares his passion for the food that sustained his family during times of war and separation and which today inspires him to explore Vietnam's wonderfully rich culture.
