Ugly Steak and Mashed Potatoes
This book is great - it's by a guy that set out to eat what Elvis ate and write a book about it. He's a guy about 27, David Adler, and he did it all - went to his elementry school, went to the army barracks Elvis stayed at - and the best - went to Pauline Nicholson's house (Elvis' night cook) and pauline fixed him one of Elvis' favorite meals - ugly steak and mash...

Sloppy seconds. . .and thirds
Interesting and (apparently) well-researched but very sloppily edited/proofread look at Elvis' obsession with food. Numerous restaurant names are misrepresented--and Freddie Prince (sic)??? Pass da Tums!

Ugly Steak and Mashed Potatoes,
By Derek Carter (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life & Cuisine Of Elvis Presley (Paperback)
This book is great - it's by a guy that set out to eat what Elvis ate and write a book about it. He's a guy about 27, David Adler, and he did it all - went to his elementry school, went to the army barracks Elvis stayed at - and the best - went to Pauline Nicholson's house (Elvis' night cook) and pauline fixed him one of Elvis' favorite meals - ugly steak and mash potatos. You have to see this book! If you find it, goto page 66 first and check out the picture titled "Pauline, me, and Hunt's Ketchup" - it is classic! This Adler guy is a genius!

EXCELLENT,
By I Heart Audio Books (Fort Worth, Texas USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life & Cuisine Of Elvis Presley (Paperback)
This book is unique. Similiar to an Errol Morris documentary about the down home peculiarities of American culture. Adler generates interesting insights into the King's psychological and social makeup. Very entertaining. A must have for gourmands, Elvis fans and scholars of American pop culture.

TASTEEEEEEE tidbits!,
By Ed "history teacher" (Kentucky) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Life & Cuisine Of Elvis Presley (Paperback)
The book serves as a source of entertainment, information and pleasure. I highly recommend it to those who want to know both Elvis and his culinary tastes/delights better. Recipes are easy to make and taste, as we say in the South, "more-better!"

Weird Elvis,

This review is from: Life & Cuisine Of Elvis Presley (Paperback)
Elvis was a very strange but interesting individual, this predominantly cookbook describes his culinary desires. Not exactly healthy heart recipes. Elvis was basically always a truck driver from Tupelo Mississippi. His life was tragic and very misunderstood.
