5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Authentic Greek Cooking, May 8, 2002

This review is from: Opaa! Greek Cooking Detroit Style (Paperback)

Ok, I usually don't write reviews but this book deserves it and not just because I am from Detroit. I love Greektown and all these recipes are wonderful and I can bring the taste of Greektown to my home and bake whenever I feel like it. I've made lots of Baklava but this is the best tasting Baklave recipe (page 147) I've ever made. If you like Roast Stuffed Chicken, you've got 2 great recipes in here. Artchokes??? in here too, and great. Leg of Lamb, you got about 20 lamb recipes in here and you have a glossery and food conversions, kitchen hints, learn all about honey. Look, this is probably the best cookbook on Greek Cuisine. Enjoy!

If you're looking for wonderful color photos of the food and lengthly verbage on the background and food history, this isn't the book of Greek cooking for you. But if you want fantastic tasting Greek food (as we're spoilt here in Motown with Greektown) this book is it. The finest lamb, pork and fish dishes with Greek touch. My favorites are the pastitsio, lamb stew with green beans. Opaa!
