Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Gathered from Disney theme parks and vacation hotels in Canada, Europe, Mexico, Japan, the U.K., the Caribbean and even further afield, the recipes here are fairly basic, and the directions are briskly minimal. So if you have a favorite haunt from your recent holidays, you'll probably be able to reconjure some of the fare from there by paging through this. Although the recipes are organized by genre (poultry; breads), a restaurant index provides easy access to remembered hot spots. As for the food if you haven't toured a Disney resort: it may disappoint in this intercontinental but still fairly no-frills assortment. What makes the "Contemporary French Toast" contemporary, for instance? The suggested sourdough bread, perhaps; use of cinnamon; optional syrup, butter; but that's about it. Recipes do not necessarily address health concerns. For a four-person serving, would fat-conscious Americans be likely to down a fettucine dish that called for four cups of heavy cream and two cups of grated cheese, as well as lobster meat? It's up to us.

From Booklist
Most probably, many libraries will rush to buy a copy of Disney's make-at-home edibles just to satisfy patron demand. Yet once the cookbook of more than 350 recipes is perused, there may be a feeling of "Is that all?" Why? Certainly not because of the dishes included; the selection is enough to satisfy even the most persnickety of tastes. But there's no narrative about the foodstuffs, no blurbs about origins, and no text about the magical mouse and his compatriots. Walt Disney's favorite recipes are credited by one line.

I have often heard that Disney served up some of the best cuisine around. This book proves that it is true. This book has a wide variety of recipes anything from simple to complex, and american to a vast amount of ethnic dishes. Recipes are easy to follow, and turn out well. If you want to bring the taste of Disney home, or impress your family this is the way to go.

Although I have visited both Disney Theme areas on both sides of the country I have never eaten at the many restaurants, my food experience has been like many of us who just grabbed a quick hamburger and fries while on our way to the next ride. However, when I recieved this book as a gift I was pleasantly surprised. The recipes were easy to follow and came out tasting great. Now I only wish that I could go back the parks and the resorts to taste the food first hand, so I know what else I could make out of the book. Whomever gets this book I am sure they will enjoy it just as much as my family and I have.

It's a good book, lots of good recipes in it. But the ones I was looking for were not included. It didn't have recipes from the restaurants we went to, as they probably didn't... Read more
