"so this is basically her first book, but includes a little more info, like a section on wine tasting, and entertaining. and a thousand different ways to wear a scarf. she's entertaining to read, and has some great ideas- but she's more geared towards the neiman marcus crowd- where i'm more in the target crowd! the book is split into different deasons, which is great- but honestly, i buy what i can for as cheap as possible! and we dont have farmers markets year around. still fun to read though and i got a bunch of new reicpes to try. just wish more were vegan friendly!!!"
"This book was very good, but it was more about the recipes and food than about the experience. It does have some stories and advice throughout, just didn't give me the same wonderful feeling as "French Women Don't Get Fat"."
"Overall a delightful, breezy read with a lot of repetitive information from Guiliano's first book, French Women Don't Get Fat. The only thing that really bugs me is the author's condescending tone. It seems that every sentence should begin with "French Women are better than American Women because...". One would have thought she had gotten that feedback about her first book, but I guess not."
"I happened to be at Sherry-Lehman the same day that Mireille was doing a book signing there, and bought this out of curiosity (not to mention she was standing right there and I didn't want to be rude). This book is a bit fluffy, and I found myself skimming over nearly all of it. The redeeming factor is the end when she discusses wine and entertaining. The wine section is one of the most clear-cut and helpful guides I've found, with information that would be helpful to even the most clueless of beginners. However, I don't think she is conveying anything earth shattering in the rest of it. Enjoy what you have and all things in moderation practically sums up everything else."
