This is the best gourmet spa cookbook available. It is creative, easy to follow, gorgeous, and inspiring. It is the most outstanding, low calorie, up to date book of its kind. I made the Lobster Mashed Potatoes with Roasted Tenderloin of Beef and my guests thought they had died and gone to heaven.

Food tastes amazing. Hard to believe you can get so much flavor for so few calories. High recommend it.

I just purchased this book and have already tried several of the recipes. I really like the idea that I can use some of the key elements from this book to help my existing recipes. Chef Steve and Jason are great, I just met them last week at Cal A Vie, but their attention to detail and the meticulous way that this book was created is evident page by page.

As someone who has been to the spa I wish there were even more recipes and less about the spa because I just cannot get enough of the recipes. You really will not regret this beautiful book that has some incredible content.

Each recipe has the calorie counts which is great for those that are trying to watch their diet.

I cannot wait for the 2nd book!

I got more than I bargained for from this book. I thought it was going to be "a recipe book", but it's so much more. I knew the food would be nutritious, but I didn't fully appreciate the lengths Cal-a-vie go to in order to give nutritional values for every recipe. The daily menu is excellent, and the full colour glossy photos just make you want to prepare the dishes as soon as you can. Lovely! All-in-all it's a beautifully presented book - very classy, probably just like Cal-a-vie itself, although I've never been... yet!

Also, I was delighted when the book arrived sooner than expected. Many thanks indeed Amazon.
