Customer Reviews

A Great book!!

I received this book as a Christmas present 24 years ago and I still use it regularly! The recipes are quick and easy. What I like best about them is that they're not recipes typically seen in most Chinese cookbooks, but anything I've made from this book has been delicious. The step-by-step photos that go with some of the recipes are very helpful if you're unfamiliar with some of the techniques used. Another nice feature is that the calorie content per serving along with protein, fat and sugar is listed after the ingredients, if you're watching your weight, these listings can help you decide which dishes to make. Overall, this is a fantastic book! I'd recommend it to anyone with an interest in cooking Chinese food and find yourself bored with the take-out choices.

Greatest Cookbook I've come across yet.

I found this book at a used book store while on vacation. I have used many of the recipes in the book. The layout, design, photographs and instructions in this little gem make it easy to understand the process and cook any of the recipes described with ease! The recipes and flavors are truly Chinese. I live in New York so, for me, the ingredients are easy to find. My friends and relatives want copies of this wonderful book. Please print more!!

I love this book, PLEASE PRINT MORE SO THAT I CAN BUY MORE!!

This cookbook is the GREATEST! I have given them as gifts to at least 5 friends and everyone loves them. I have been searching high & low and failed to find any. My sister wants one & I refuse to part with mine, so please let me know how I can purchase this book. I would like to buy at least 3 books. I do not want to win the contest. I would just want the buy more. PLEASE HELP ME!
