Rupa Publications THE LUCKNOW COOKBOOK: A collection of recipes that celebrates the tehzeeb and nazaakat of Lucknow

I want to confirm and verify that this book is an on-demand printed book (probably the large Ingram Content Group), meaning that the ordered date corresponds to the printed date in the back of the book.The photographs in the book are black and white. There is NO color food photography in the book. I ordered mine through "Shipped and Sold by Amazon."If you're looking for an everyday Lucknowi cookbook, this is it. It will be a great and wonderful addition to your cooking library.If, on the other hand, you're expecting Awadi in the style of Nawabi cuisine, you'll be disappointed.If you're looking for shahi/nawabi style of Awadh cooking, I personally recommend "Dastarkhwan-e Awadh" and "Flavours of Avadh." I have both of these books, and they're excellent.Ronald N. Tan @ "Tan Can Cook"Vacaville, California, USA

Very informative

Beautiful recipes but not enough flashy pictures!

A really versatile compilation of Lucknawi recipes, from appetisers to desserts, with ample focus on iconic dishes. The authors have also included quite a few rare recipes that are even difficult to get in today’s Lucknow.

Good recipes.
