5.0 out of 5 stars Flavors, indeed
I really enjoy the recipes in this book. There is a wide variety of things to make. An imaginative use of different vinegars. The bean salads (esp. the black-eyed peas -- addictive) are excellent, as are the desserts. As a vegetarian, there are a ton of recipes I can make. The meat-based recipes sound really good, too.

I used to frequent her shop in Manhattan, I bought...

3.0 out of 5 stars A nice summary of '90s popular cooking.
Morgan covers a variety of popular 1990s dishes in a nicely laid-out volume. The writing style, however, lacks the usual warmth that is characteristic of her co-author, Michael McLaughlin. I bought the book because of McLaughlin's name on the title page, and while I think it is generally OK, I definitely miss his usual imprint.

I used to frequent her shop in Manhattan, I bought it because it was there that I tasted *the* best hummus ever -- as a vegetarian, hummus gets boring after a while. Alas, this recipe is not in the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful, innovative book, August 21, 1998

This review is from: Flavors (Hardcover)
I have purchased my second copy. This is a book to share with friends. Many innovative, yet easy to fix, dishes. This book has been a major addition to my collection.

1.0 out of 5 stars 80's rehash, December 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Flavors (Hardcover)
This book contains recipes which might have smacked of innovation 15 years ago, but now seem tired and might be more appropriate for the pages of Good Housekeeping than from a self professed cutting edge New York City catering operation.

Don't waste your money on the book.
