Amazing Book - Fantastic Cookbook!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Without a doubt this is one of the most wonderful cookbooks I have ever read. The stories of young Giampaolo Fallai and his mother that compliment each recipe are to-die-for funny! - On top of that the illustrations by Anna Jurininch are stunning and bring back a sense of an "old time story book" - The recipes are easy to follow and exciting to prepare - truly an original cookbook.
