Portland's Palate is full of local-favorite recipes incorporating northwest seafood, cheese, fruits and vegitables, et.al. Every recipe is a new adventure. Friends and family have requested copies for themselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yummy Recipes, April 12, 2006

This review is from: From Portland's Palate: A Collection of Recipes from the City of Roses (Hardcover)

This is a wonderful cookbook with easy to follow recipes. The book definitely takes advantage of the fruits and vegetables that are available throughout the year. There are a variety of recipes to choose from and the ones I've gotten the best reviews from are the crab dip, carrot cake, and clam chowder. My only complaint about this book is that many of the recipes are very heavy and involve using cream, sour cream, cream cheese, butter, mayonaise, etc. Not the healthiest of ingredients, but the food sure does taste good.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves to cook or even for people that are just learning to cook. The recipies vary from very simple to some that are more complicated. It is a beautiful cookbook and suitable to give as a gift. I have tried many of the recipies in it and have loved each of them. I love cookbooks and this is by far one of my favorites!
