Lots of High Quality Bang for Your Buck in this Book
+ One of the best ever! + Must have cookbook
This book belongs to a special class of cookbooks where you get a whole lot of recipes for a low price per recipe. These books are not like `The Joy of Cooking' or `James Beard's American Cookery' where you get a lot of advice on cuts of meat, types of potatoes, and techniques for making an ...

The Cakebread Cellars Napa Valley Cookbook: Wine and Recipes to Celebrate Every Season's Harvest 2 reviews Jack Cakebread, Dolores Cakebread, ...
Ten Speed Press, 2003
For Cooks--and for California Dreamin'
+ Great Idea for a Gift Basket for that Wine Lover!!
By Bill Marsano. If you haven't heard of Jack and Dolores Cakebread it's probably because their wine is so fine it's always on allocation--there's not enough to go around, so the annual production is allocated to customers and restaurateurs who supported the Cakebreads when they founded their ...

Sunset Cookbook Classics: 8 Cookbooks in 1 Volume 1 review
Oxmoor House, 2000
Eight in One!
This volume has all the most popular Sunset cookbooks. My favorite is the Cookies section, followed by the Appetizers. Loads of pictures, and clear instructions. Particuarly good for beginners, and a basic resource for more experienced cooks.

The California Pizza Kitchen Cookbook 24 reviews Larry Flax, Rick Rosenfield
Wiley, 1995
Love this book
+ Be prepared for a bit of complexity + As good as it gets
I love this cookbook. As far as the dough recipes go, I have no idea if they turn out well because I use a Boboli pizza crust. If your a Rachael Ray fan, you'll figure out how to make most of these pizzas with the quickness. My favorite CPK pizza is the peking duck pizza, since my grocery store ...

El Cholo Cookbook: Recipes and Memories from California's Best-Loved Mexican Kitchen 3 reviews Merrill Shindler
Angel City Press, 1998
The cookbook is as memorable as the restaurant
+ No longer a native....... + A great cookbook!
I first went to El Cholo when I was a child from Manhattan. When we moved to LA, it was the first restaurant my parents took me to. And it was as good as we remembered. Last week I made the green corn tamales from the recipe in this book and they came out great! I love this cookbook.

sometimes their recipe testing is faulty, but overall this should be a standard---both volumes! For putting together a dinner menu for 6 it is magnificent, and will keep the cook as well as the guests enthralled. (nice margins for personal notes, too). As a soup maven, I found the soup section ...

Chez Panisse Menu Cookbook 6 reviews Alice Waters

+ Chez Panisse Menu Cookbook
There's a special reason we go to the books of the great chefs. It's not to throw a meal together in 2 minutes, or to make sure we will find a dish we can cook with no trouble in two pans in our kitchens at home. It's to look inside an imagination and see what someone can achieve with ingredients ...
