Superbly enhanced with more than a hundred full-color photographs, The Best Of Gourmet clearly lives up to its title as it showcases dozens of menus featuring more than 350 "kitchen friendly" recipes ranging from Coconut Shrimp with Tamarind Ginger Sauce; Pearl Couscous with Olives and Roasted Tomatoes; and Asparagus Soup with Parmesan Custards; to Sicilian-Style Pasta with Sardines; Peanut Sesame Noodles; and Coffee Granita with Sambuca Cream and Chocolate Shavings.

Compendium of flavor inspired by Bay Area. From Italian to grilling to Chineese to other ethnic cuisine of all types, there is amazing amount of recipes in here, over 325, with some 33 menus all with photos.

Also, there are help sections, e.g. "Artichoke Cooking Class" and menu ideas for all occassions, and all meals. Liked inclusion of meals for one, including a dazzling "Chocolate Raspbeery Icebox Cake" for one. You've got to try this one!
