Book Reviews of The Complete Asian Cookbook

Book Review: 29 years of cooking heaven
Summary: 5 Stars

I was told about this book in 1976 from English friends living in Indonesia. They swore it was the real thing. We had lived in Sri Lanka in the early 60's and I was desperate to learn some of the dishes (I only had our cook's shorthand recipes and my mother's recollections). I not only learned how to cook from Charmaine (and Julia Child) but over the years saw almost every ingredient finally show up in our San Francisco area. I had the privilege of having a correspondence with Ms. Solomon in the last few years and was able to thank her for opening my eyes and my stomach to heavenly cooking. I have given this book to practically everyone in my family and close friends. It is THE classic Asian cooking source with REAL authentic dishes.
Thanks Charmaine.
