"This is our most-used reference book. I bought the previous edition when I was food editor of the newspaper and reviewed restaurants. When I heard it had been updated, I ordered the new edition, stat! And, it's even better than the old one, which I would have given five stars. Whenever we talk food, which is fairly often, or when I encounter an unfamiliar ingredient, I can turn to this book and get the information I need. It couldn't be simpler to use since it's alphabetical. It's cross-referenced thoroughly. How big should a beef tournedo be? See page 637. What to do with a small piece of kasseri? Page 328. Would I like a glass of cachaca? Page 89 suggests I might. The appendices are stuffed with useful information. If you love to cook or eat out, you should own this."
"Over a period of time we have purchased five copies of this comprehensive reference and passed them along to family and friends. It is a valuable addition to any kitchen."
"This short and squat reference (small enough to casually tote to a restaurant or market) is thick with vital information. An essential reference for people who eat/cook/live."
