I just love this book. The photography is wonderful and the recipe's work brilliantly. It is a book that I return to for solid recipes for special occasions. Definitely one of my favourites.
Rating: - Excellent book for home cooking
Angela's book is just perfect for home cooking with fabulous results. The dishes are italian, traditional and ageless, I cook again and again from this book. Thanks Angela!!
Rating: - Great recipes and edu-taining!
Bought this book last week and already getting it dirty with olive oil, flour...
Being a Michelin starred chef one might think Angela would have a book of highly complicated recipes and gloss, but it isn't.
All bases are covered from soups and starters to puddings and snacks. The recipes are clear and never more than a page, very similar to River Cafe Easy. The difference here though is that Angela is in touch with Italy not just through cooking but through family. She has a great easy going tone and together with her heritage makes it all much more interesting, informative and personal.
Little stories and notes place the food in context, adding to the great recipes.
