Customer Reviews

Excellent!!!
I have been using this recipe book for the last three months and it is excellent. Linda gives lots of information on the history of this cuisine and how it is traditionally served. All the recipes are clearly laid out and very uncomplicated. All the dishes I have prepared have worked every time. Everyone I have prepared this food for, all of them meat eaters I must add, has thoroughly enjoyed it especially the corn cakes of which a mexican version appears in the Vegan Taste of Mexico (yet another excellent recipe book by Linda). I have tried many vegan cookbooks over the last two and a half years and I must say Linda's regional cook books have proved to be the best. Hopefully Linda will cover other regions soon such as, Japan, China, Thailand and Greece maybe?...

Try the lentil and sweet potato soup and change your life!
I recently bought this book for my sister and decided to taste test one of the recipes before I handed it on- sorry sis, you'll have to buy your own copy now. There's sisterly love, and then there's a vegan taste of the carribean love! All the recipes I've tried so far have been very clear and uncomplicated but taste like you've had a professional chef over for dinner. I've just lost a load of weight, but won't mind getting fat using this book. Buy it and change your kitchen!!

It's OK
I didn't give this book 5 stars as it is pretty short, with not that many main courses. Having said that the recipes I've tried so far have been good - it just isn't as comprehensive as many other vegan cookbooks - but I guess you're only buying Caribbean recipes - not all cuisines.
