Book Reviews of Alinea

Book Review: A book you won't cook from....
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a truly amazing book but one I don't think I will ever use to cook from. The photography, the writing, the recipes are all excellent but I think maybe a little too complicated to want to do at home.

At work maybe I will use a few of the ideas but I dont think i will ever make any of the full recipes.

I still have to give this 5 stars as it is a truly great book and just carries on from any of Thomas Keller's books, Its different cooking but still in the same league!! Highly reccomended
