5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific No Nonse Vegetarian Cookbook, April 17, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Chicago Diner Cookbook (Paperback)
As an old Chicago Diner fan, I could not wait for this book to come out. Since I purchased it, have been using it for so many dishes at home.. Everything is so healthy and easy to make. Try the tofu cheesecake, cream soups (made with soy milk), Ex-Benedict, Tofu roll, Chocolate mousse. Even my kids approve of the dishes. They still have not figured out that they are eating tofu. Jo Kaucher translated most of the comfort foods you remember from your childhood into healthy vegan recipes -- that taste great! Thank you...

5.0 out of 5 stars A lover of the Chicago Diner, January 3, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Chicago Diner Cookbook (Paperback)
One of the things I was impressed with at the Diner was the (vegan) German Chocolate Cake. The recipe in this book makes it easy to prepare the same dish at home. It's incredible! The recipes are easy to prepare and the ingredients are not exotic or hard-to-find as long as you have a health food store nearby. However, some of the meals require lots of time in the kitchen and require a little planning (as with any meal).

This book is a great gift for people who have visited the Chicago Diner as well as vegans and vegetarians (or those just looking for some new recipes!).

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Cookbook!, February 15, 2005

This review is from: The Chicago Diner Cookbook (Paperback)
What initially drew me to this cookbook was the Chocolate Cake recipe that I found on the net. And yes, it is possibly the best vegan chocolate cake you'll ever have.

But that's not all this book is about. A good amount of tasty, easy to make recipes are also in here. I appreciated the glossary at the end of the book that takes the time to explain what some of the more obscure ingredients are, and where to find them.

Overall, there are more good recipes here than bad, and I would recommend it to anyone in search of tasty vegetarian recipes.
