Customer Reviews

Good recipes and ideas-- makes a great gift, too!

If you are stuck for something to give someone in your life who might be vegetarian/vegan, tea-totaler or just enjoys collecting unique cookbooks, look no further. Written by DJ Moby and the manager of his restarant, "Teany", this book shares insights about living an eco-friendly life with some tasty receipes. I made several of the them; they were not complicated or expensive and turned out great.

Great little book!!

I loved this book, my only complaint...it should have been longer. It was funny, interesting and informative. I've been a vegetarian for 5 years so alot of the recipes were familar but the desserts were mostly new to me. Like a review posted earlier said, it's hard to classify this book. A little history, recipes, humor and Moby background...equals an entertaining book.

Very Entertaining and Good Recipies too!

I'm a bit biased because I've always been a Moby fan. I believe, though, that anyone who buys this book will enjoy it. Moby has a great sense of humor and it really comes through in this book. From hangover cures to general ramblings about everyday life, there's something for everyone. As a tea enthusiast, I thought that I knew as much as you could know about the stuff. Wrong! I learned a great deal about different kinds of tea and how you should prepare them. There's also some info on how to use tea/tea bags as remedies for different ailments. The recipies are great. The Cashew Nut Butter sandwich is tasty and Moby's mom has a good burrito recipie in the book as well. I'm not a vegetarian and I liked the way that it wasn't "shoved" down your throat (as some of my friends have done). There were also hints on how to change some of the recipies to suit your meat loving friends.

I Love This Book!

I love the layout and fun design of this book. There are great color photos, silly moments and delicious recipes. I made the "perfect sandwich" recipe and plum french toast. They were very tasty. Moby and Kelly, I need more veg recipes like this, I think you should do another book!!!!

Unclassifiable, but great!

teany ranks as one of my all-time favorite places to go when I'm in NYC. The food and tea are fabulous, the music and overall atmosphere brighten up even the darkest January day, and the staff is just awesome. So, I had to buy this book the second I spotted it, and I wasn't disappointed. All their best recipes are included (finally I know what goes in a raspberry lime ricky!), along with fun behind-the-scenes stories and inspired ideas for using tea and organic ingredients to improve your life. If you've ever been to teany, you'll definitely enjoy this book, and if you haven't, it'll make you want to go there.
