Book Reviews of Everyday PastaBook Review: What can I say, "Its Giada!" Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book! I have already tried a few of the recipes and loved them, I told my neighbor about the book, and after looking at mine she bought it and has tried a few of the recipes and loves them too!
They are, as always with Giada, easy to follow, and yummy tasting. A must if you are a pasta person!
Book Review: Wonderful dishes Summary: 4 Stars
Tried several of the dishes and each one was easy to follow, quick for dinner and a crowd pleaser. If you like pasta - this is a great weeknight cooking cookbook.
Book Review: You're buying Giada's presence more than substance Summary: 3 Stars
I love Giada de Laurentiis. I am a fan. I love her show, I love the way she presents food. That said, I will probably not purchase this book. I bought her Everyday Italian at a book signing and liked it enough, even though there are more pics of Giada in low-cut shirts than of the recipes. I didn't buy her second book, and I won't buy this one. Why? Because I can find many of the recipes for free on the food network website, and because frankly, I don't want to pay $ for pics of Giada.
The recipes are ok, they're geared towards people who would like her show, not anything more hardcore, and that's ok. I watch her show still. But unless you are one of the die-hard fans who wants to get the same necklaces she wears on every episode and wear the same cute tops and you'd buy anything she writes, there are better Italian cuisine books out there to spend your money on.
Book Review: bought my own after maxing out check outs at the library Summary: 4 Stars
Great book. I bought after maxing out the check-outs and the library and decided I needed to own this book.
Book Review: geat reference from Giada Summary: 5 Stars
This is an enjoyable read with several good ideas. Like her Food network show always simple to make dishes.
