Review

Chef Judith Weinstock shares her cafe's secrets in the Kingston Hotel Cafe Cookbook. A delicious read, the cookbook makes your mouth water not only for a fresh raspberry omelet with orange-blossom cream cheese but also for a long walk with berries an arm's length away....this is a cookbook you'll want to retreat with, preferably to a well-stocked kitchen -- Frontier, Sept.-Oct., 1998

[Judith] shares everything she ever learned about cooking, from house-made breads and warming soups to creatively simple dinners that go a long way in lightening up winter's days -- Palo Alto Daily News, Dec. 1998

5.0 out of 5 stars No need to be a customer of the restaurant to love this., September 13, 1999

This review is from: The Kingston Hotel Cafe Cookbook: Free-Spirited Recipes to Warm the Soul (Paperback)

This cookbook is a delight, mixing fresh, seasonal ingredients in surprising but always appetizing ways -- and best of all, using recipes that are not arcane or terribly time-consuming (but do expect to spend a fair amount of time chopping). My personal favorites are two unusual summer dishes, one a fruit gazpacho and the other a hot blueberry soup with coconut milk and lime. Yum! I *will* seek out the restaurant when next I'm in the Pacific Northwest.

This review is from: The Kingston Hotel Cafe Cookbook: Free-Spirited Recipes to Warm the Soul (Paperback)

The recipes in this book hold up to the high quality of food served in the restaurant. I have spent many mornings munching on fresh homemade scones, and my palate waters at the thought of the many varied deserts inside. Every recipe is a treasure in itself, and no kitchen can truly be complete without them.

This review is from: The Kingston Hotel Cafe Cookbook: Free-Spirited Recipes to Warm the Soul (Paperback)

The Kingston Hotel Cafe has been my family and friends favorite place for the best food on the Kitsap peninsula. Now to be able to recreate all my favorite recipes from Braided Salmon and Halibut with Sorrel sauce to the Hazelnut Torte and all her wonderful soups is very exciting. The cook book is fabulous as is the author who has created it. Thanks Judith!!!
