.Classic Vegetarian Cooking: From the Middle East and North Africa
City Travel Guides > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan
by: Habeeb Salloum

March 01, 2003
Mr Salloum obviously has a great love of and knowledge of the cuisines that he presents. There are fascinating personal stories and historical snippets. The art work is beautiful and all the recipes sound mouthwatering. I really could not resist making 'gazelles ankles' just for the bizarre name. They were easy to make, delicious but just a tad too sweet for my palate. The story attached by Mr Salloum made a great introduction to my work colleagues when I made the ankles to take to a meeting at work. I thoroughly recommend this book.

this is the kind of food that gives veganism a bad name. i had this book for several years and have eventually given it to a charity shop because it was just gathering dust. there are so many better vegan cook books out there - i.e. vegan feasts, the new vegan, the voluptous vegan. please try these first!

.Super Natural Cooking: Five Delicious Ways to Incorporate Whole and Natural Ingredients
City Travel Guides > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan
by: Heidi Swanson

March 31, 2007
Fantastic book, every recipe is delicious. This and her blog are fast becoming our only source of recipes! Can't wait to get her other book Cook 1.0: A Fresh Approach to the Vegetarian Kitchen: A Fresh Approach to the Vegetarian Kitchen.
The only problem is sometimes it's difficult to find some of the more exotic ingredients which appear to be available on every street corner in San Francisco - but that's what Google's for.

.Your Vegetarian Pregnancy: A Month-by-month Guide to Health and Nutrition (Fireside Books (Fireside))
City Travel Guides > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan
by: Holly Roberts

August 18, 2003
I've bought lots through Amazon over the years and this is the first time I've felt strongly enough to write a review. I've no complaints about the information in this book, but I found the tone and style so offputting that I stopped reading after a couple of chapters and have given it away. Basically it felt like the author was making a lot of assumptions about my views just because I'm pregnant and a vegetarian (for example by speaking about the joys of creating life without taking life (i.e. eating meat)) and it made the book very annoying to read.

I guess I like the 'rough guide to pregnancy' style, which is peer-to-peer, modern, informative and amusing - in contrast this title felt like I'd gone back in time with traditional ... Read More:

.Heaven's Banquet: Vegetarian Cooking for Lifelong Health the Ayurveda Way
City Travel Guides > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan
by: Miriam Kasin Hospodar

January 31, 2008
Three main points for this review:

1. Delicious, reliable and easy-to-follow
2. Completely banished my meat-cravings
3. A very good book for Ayurvedic cooking

This book is full of delicious recipies, some traditional, some unusual but all completely reliable. All of the twenty or so that I have tried so far have been exceptional, requiring no tinkering at all, which is a minor miracle as I am a novice cook. In fact, at the second meal I have ever cooked for guests (broccoli soup, tofu in coconut milk and baked pears) I was asked how long I had been cooking! It was even more amazing considering the first meal had been the week before!

As an ex-meat-eater, I had experienced meat cravings since ... Read More:

.The Vegan Cookbook: Over 90 Mouthwatering Recipes for All Occasions (Hamlyn Food & Drink S.)
City Travel Guides > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan
by: Tony Weston, Yvonne Bishop

June 15, 2004
I found the dietry information at the beginning of this book quite useful but as a person who does not eat animal-derived foods and therefore has always paid attention to this sort of information there are only so many times I can be told the same 100 fascinating facts about nutrition without my eyes rolling into the back of my head from boredom. Did you know that vitimin C is essential for human health and can be found in citrus fruits? No? Congratulations, you must be the last person on Earth not to know it. You can come out of the cupboard now and start living with the rest of us again.

The dietry stuff is just on the opening ten pages or so. Most of the book is taken up with recipies. Lordy, Miss Scarlet! What recipies! Just the descriptions made ... Read More:
