Gastronomic Success February 24, 2007
Though the book sensibly substitutes ingredients found in the Philippines for items that are more readily available in local US stores, the compromise in taste is not noticable (if there even is). All in all, it is a short but very helpful book that taught me how to cook a few homestyle dishes that I know, miss and love. If there is any bane to it, it would be that it did not have more recipes tucked away in its small, but informative pages.

nice book but... June 17, 2006
This is a very good book for beginning filipino food eaters. But it is missing some of the more "interesting" filipino food recipes such as Dinuguan (pork blood stew) and sinigang (sourfish soup). The version of Caldereta is made with beef instead of the traditional goat meat. Other than these minor ommissions, this isn't too bad of a cook book. It has very nice color pictures and a fairly good glossary.

This is a perfect cookbook that beautifully brings out the beauty and delicious flavors of Filipino cuisine.
I'm actually happy that it doesn't have all the "exotic" stuff such as dinuguan, goat meat stew, paksiw etc.
It's presented in a modern, slightly Americanized way which I think is proper for filipinos and non filipinos alike.
I love the pictures! Very beautifully done.
