Ft Cookbook

The cookbook is very interesting. It does have quite a few gamey recipes that I will never use - but I knew that going into the purchase, as I borrowed it from the library first -- I knew exactly what I was getting. It has fascinating recipes, good stories to go with it and some history. Anyone who is a cookbook collector would appreciate the book! Going through the book just makes me want to go to the local Fort Restaurant even more!

A Tremendously entertaining and useful cookbook

While it is true that some ingredients require a little effort to find, the Fort Cookbook is a tremendously entertaining, historically illuminating and just-plain-fun cookbook. I have made several recipes from it, and have encountered good results. BTW, some hard-to-find items may be found at Homebrew stores ("sour salt" aka citric acid, juniper berries, etc.)Can't wait until my travels bring me back to Denver, so I can try the real McCoy!

The most fun cookbook to read and use, in our collection.

This is a cookbook that has already become a family treasure and my mom and I have an extensive collection of many different kinds of cookbooks. Needless to say, a cookbook that gives you history of the area that their restaurant is located, plus the history behind all of the fascinating recipes that are in store for the reader/cook is a real gem to own. Two finger lickin' thumbs up.

Fabulous book; highly recommended for all levels.

This book works for food like Claire McCardell worked for American sportswear; mix and match, it all makes you look good, and it's not tough to pull together. Good value, spices up the dinner options easily, will impress your friends and in-laws enormously. It's enhanced by the stories that the author weaves through it, making it so much more than just a cookbook -- more of a picaresque tale of "How I Ended Up Running A Restaurant When All I Really Wanted Was A Good Sportscar." Highly recommended.
