Summary: Very very good!!!
Comment: I have this book (a friend bought it for me from Amazon). It's quite good, detailed, with lots of great pictures. A definite must-buy for someone who wants to offer someting different to himself or his guests.
BTW, about the "Editorial review" : Swig of "raki"????!!! for everyone to know, "raki" is a traditional Greek drink (particularly coming from the Island of Crete-I should know I live on it), made by distilled grape juice every September to end of October. Turks took this drink and use it (while been in Greece for 400 years), but it's not traditional Turkish in any way... plus the fact that Turks are Islamists and thay are not supposed to drink... right???
