 Rating: - the best vegetarian food in the worldHaving been amazed at the food at Montali over a number of years, we always hoped Malu and Alberto would write a book - and I'm so glad they have. Malu's style of vegetarian cooking is truly brilliant and worthy of Michelin stars. The book itself is lovely and beautifully laid out, giving you a real insight in to the place as well as the food. I have found the recipes easy to follow with fabulous results, and no wonder, they trialed the recipes for 2 years to check they could be replicated at home. I've already given the book to friends as gifts - meat eaters or not - they all love it. Good luck with the book Alberto and Malu - I hope it brings you the recognition you deserve! Rating: - Beautiful Book...THANK YOU FOR WRITING IT!I've been to Montali many times over the past 8 years. It is by far one of my favorite places in the world. It is such a beautiful location, staffed by warm people, owned and run by a wonderful, charming family (Malu, Alberto and their son, Damiano). My two brothers (including a professional chef) and I "discovered" Montali in 2002. I was looking for a place near Cortona so that we could easily attend the annual Steak Festival. We are NOT vegetarians...we love meat! Meat or no meat, the food at Montali is some of the best food we've ever tasted! INCREDIBLE! And, such attention to detail. The hosts are so energetic, so gracious and so kind. I am so grateful I found Montali. I love it so much that my wife and I celebrated ...

It is a large format book (A4) with many beautiful photographs accompanying all the recipes. One of those books that you enjoy taking to the sofa for a read and a look through rather than just to the kitchen. The recipes in here are quite time-consuming and very chic, but worth every minute. But the layout is fantastic - each recipe is divided into separate little sections so that you can easily do everything step by step which I found very useful for those rather complicated dishes that include a base, a sauce and a main "bit." This layout also lets you improvise and leave out some bits if you like...for ... Read More: Rating: - Probably the best veggie cookbook in the world....We have stayed at Montali twice and always hoped they would write a book. Now they have and it contains all their delicious inventive recipes, written and photographed beautifully and gives an insight into the philosophy behind the Montali experience. The recipes are clearly written, with humour, and rated for difficulty with all ingredients being carefully explained. Anyone who thinks vegetarian food is boring should buy this book - and give it to all their friends!! Rating: - Stunning Vegetarian FoodHaving eaten at Alberto & Malu's hotel, one of the best vegetarian hotels in the world, this book is the best way to sample their fantastic & unique food again and again. Recipes from breakfast to dinner with plenty of advice, techniques and step by step instructions to follow along with stunning photography this book is a must for any vegetarian and the dishes would surprise even the most hard set meat eater. |
