This REALLY IS the best cookbook I own November 18, 2006 a reviewer (Avon, CT United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love to cook and have many many cookbooks - this is the one I take with me when I travel to a cottage - I know it will have something for every time - the company, the family, the lazy night - all delicious and nothing too intricate - you can put together a great meal relatively quickly- I particularly love the suggested menus in the margin on each page - makes life pretty easy - lots of "a bit different' touches in this book - I now give it regularly as a gift, which is how I got it! buy this book if you like to cook!
Best cookbook I've ever used February 4, 2004 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I managed to somehow pick up this book in a remainders section while it was out of print and it proved to be incredibly good luck. All the recipes are very easy to make and almost all have recieved rave reviews.

I just picked up a copy of this book (and the original Uncommon Gourmet) ... and it wasn't [amount] only [amaount]. I was also told that there is a new book coming out by Ellen Helman in November. They are both wonderful books and I am glad that both are now readily available.
Help! January 7, 2001 Kay C Pierce (Malvern, Pa USA) I have been trying to find a copy of this book for a year and a half! I have been borrowing it from friends who own it! Why is it out of print? Please bring it back. Anyone have one to sell?
Why on earth is this out of print??? October 11, 1999 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
This book is elegant, simple (to the point of being foolproof), and full of variety. It's one of my very favorite cookbooks. I wanted to send it to a friend as a present, and I was astounded to find that it's unavailable, because it deserves to be a best seller! I hope it comes back soon.
