DINE LIKE THE STARS !,
By A Customer
This review is from: Backstage Pass: Catering to Music's Biggest Stars (Paperback)
These are great receipes for parties! - Putting a party together, especially the food, has always been a high anxiety event for me. This book groups menus into simple and easy plans. Just follow along and you'll have yourself a guaranteed hit! There is a variety of menu styles to choose from. I personally tried two and they both went over fabulously. None of my friends believed I cooked the meal. They were convinced I sent for take-out! I had, but not for the food . . . for the book!

Great recipes, interesting stories!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Backstage Pass: Catering to Music's Biggest Stars (Paperback)
This book is chock full of great recipes!!! Having been a band crew member backstage and having tasted the culinary delights of Behind the Scenes Catering in the past. I was very excited to hear they were putting out a cookbook. Their recipes tasted as good at home as they were backstage. The recipes were very easy to follow with two glossaries in the back listing cooking and backstage terms. All the recipes serve 8 which can easily be cut in half or quarter depending upon your group. The backstage stories were interesting. Yes, this isn't a "tell all" book, but a "tell some" book. Do we really always need the filthest stories for interesting reading? I don't think so. This book gives personal insight into 41 top musical groups; how they behave backstage and what they like to eat. It's gives the recipes for all dishes served and includes the special personal items each artist requests, food or otherwise. How do certain artists keep their figure? Who drinks juice, who drinks whiskey before going onstage? The old saying, "You are what you eat" really holds true! It was interesting for me to compare the dietary regime of certain artists with how they look. Backstage Pass really is two books in one. First, a celebrity behind the scenes look. Secondly, a great cookbook. I enjoyed reading this book very much and am anxious to try more of the recipes listed!
