## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best cookbook to come along in a long time
*by  on Reviewed in the United States January 21, 2016*

The best cookbook to come along in a long time. Not only are the recipes delicious but surprisingly easy to execute. Instructions are clear and the history and provenance of each is explained and detailed. So is the explanation of ingredients and techniques. I've already marked all the dishes I'll be making, I'll be cooking from it for some time. Engin's personality comes through, her sense of humor and her love of life. The book is a delight!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Turkish Native Approves!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 1, 2016*

Bought this as a gift for my mother. She loves it. It arrived quickly and she's already made a few delicious dishes. Her husband is Turkish so you know it's legit!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This bargain-priced cookbook is not to be missed
*by  on Reviewed in the United States October 11, 2018*

Fantastic cookbook with Beautiful pictures (which I enjoy as it shows the finished product); impressive cookbook which one would probably display on the coffee table for guests to enjoy & admire! To purchase this cookbook at such a bargain price (barely $4 - compared to its brand-new price $50) makes it all the more enjoyable! Bon appetit!
