Customer Reviews

not great
All style and no substance. The recipes are very brief and leave you guessing. Covers all the favourites, but not in any detail. Sorry I wasted the money and I found it a copy of the popular blue covered tourist cookbook available in every language in the souvenier shops, so don't buy it if you already have that one!

A comprehensive kitchen shelf filller
If you like Greek food you'll love this book.
It tells you what you need and the time you need BUT does not go into huge detail which makes it sutible for the adventerous cook who wants to find their own way to cook Greek food.
It delivers everything, from how to cook fried eggs and cheese to full on bandit meals.
A must for lovers of Greek food

My Review!
This is a beautifully illustrated Greek cookbook which contains many real Greek recipes. It has a clear contents listing and recipes are not at all complicated to prepare. This cookbook contains recipes for many of the better-known Greek dishes, and also includes some more unusual recipes like St Fanourious' Yeast Cake. The illustrations are wonderful and this high-quality publication contains so many recipes....Oh, and it's printed in Greece, You can't really get more authentic than that!
