I've made two dishes from here so far. Very happy with them both but each recipe made huge amounts. Feta cheese cheesecake might not sound appetizing but it was delicious. The recipe made two loaf tins full, very handy for the 4th July BBQ I took it to.

I took a cooking class from Aglaia Kremezi when she was on a book tour in Houston. Fantastic, easy recipes! I have made many out of this book and would love to travel to Greece to attend her cooking school there. I purchased this copy of her book as a gift for a friend.

I am a home cook who bought this because I was dazzled by the author's previous cookbooks. I was a little worried that the recipes might be too hot, but so far, every one I've tried has been staggeringly good. The vegetarian moussaka is the best I've ever tasted, hands down. A dish to swoon over, and it gets better every day. I took the trouble to get real Greek olive oil (online), Aleppo pepper, and sheep's milk yogurt, and am glad I did. Culinary ecstasy. I treasure this book and can't wait for Kremezi's next one.

I'm a sucker for beautifully designed cookbooks with great photography - I find them a source of inspiration for cooking - but having good recipes helps. This book has both visual appeal,easy-to-follow instructions and dishes for every occasion.

This book is the only source I've found for the wonderful spicy sauces of Greek and North African cuisine - and how to use the sauces in various dished. The recipes are complete and easy to follow.

Mediterranean has always been my favorite as I am of Mediterranean descent. There are some really great recipes in here but also a handful I would never make; though its that way with all cookbooks I suppose.
