Customer Rating:      Summary: Good, authentic & easy Thai, Lao, Vietnamese, Burmese... Comment: What a terrific cookbook! Vatch provides fantastic recipes, great information about equipment and techniques, and menu ideas. He includes key recipes from Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Burma, Malaysia and Singapore. He includes pictures from each country, insight into the way of life, and outlines how the food differs from one country to another.
There are also terrific pictures of many of the dishes. I especially like his "Making a Meal" section, which helps a chef plan a pan-Asian feast or a one-dish dinner.
I really recommend this cookbook to anyone who is interested in cooking authentic meals from several countries of southeast Asia.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Simply Wonderful Comment: I just love this book. I stumbled on to it while browsing the library shelf and knew I had to own it. The recipes are great, the pictures are beautiful, and the book is well laid out by country. I've been to SE Asia, and now every time I prepare a meal from this book, I look at the pictures while cooking, and enjoy the wonderful memories of Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, where I first sampled many of the dishes. This book would make a perfect gift for someone who has traveled SE Asia and loves the food. It was my gift to me.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Vatch's rules Comment: I lived in Bangkok for 3 years and have tried every Thai cookbook in print--this is the BEST. Easy easy easy and authentic, with beautiful illustrations and descriptions of food from Thailand, Burma, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, this makes a great gift. You will use this cookbook all the time.
