Face Food Recipes in my opinion is a must have for the "cool" book to say you possess and read. Another awesome book from Mark Batty and Author, Christopher Salyers (sequel to his first "Face Food:The Visual Creativity of Japanese Bento Boxes") shows how easy and how hard it is to make these bento boxes. This is NOT your average cook book, nor would you want it to be. Seriously, for anyone that loves to have a book on their coffee table that quickly makes as a fun conversational piece, or a gift this season or for your own personal love for Bentos and or exploration of, this is a must buy. 5 Stars of fun!
