Review of Alla Fratelli by Barry McDonald and Terry Durack

August 16, 2016 by
 |  Leave Comment
One might be puzzled why an Australian, by way of New Zealand, named Barry McDonald could be qualified to write a cookbook on how to eat Italian. The answer to that query is simple:  McDonald identifies as Italian and is proud of his faux Italian heritage. He loves the food, the wine, thinks "coffee is oxygen, the tomato is a… read more

Review of Tarts by Frédéric Anton and Christelle Brua

 |  One Comment  |  Leave Comment
From the moment I released Tarts from its humble brown shipping envelope, I was smitten by its pure artistic beauty. I immediately judged this book by the cover - truly the best word to describe it is stunning. Stunning not in the way that books about ethnic cuisine grab your heart with feelings of home and family but purely by… read more

Review of Flavorwalla by Floyd Cardoz

I fell in culinary love with Floyd Cardoz while watching Season 3 of Top Chef Masters. How had this New York chef who cooks with bold flavors not been on my radar? As is my modus operandi, I went directly to Amazon and checked to see if he had written any cookbooks. Yes, there one was one title - One… read more

Review of Nanban by Tim Anderson

During the summer of 2010, Tim Anderson impulsively applied to compete on MasterChef, the popular UK culinary competition show, thinking he had little chance of hearing back. But hear back he did, and in 2011 he was declared the youngest winner of MasterChef at age 26. Anderson states he won partly due to his souped-up ramen with porcini-infused pork broth… read more
