4.0 out of 5 stars Very pleasant reading
If you like Road Dahl's writing, his wit - you must read this book, but try to forget his other books for a moment and enjoy these real-life stories and anecdotes written in the last stage of his life, all mixed up with recipes and photographs and comments. This is the last thing he wrote, and it must be appreciated and savoured! Dont expect just a plain cookbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Eclectic Cookbook, May 10, 2010
By 
Bored of Folk (Nowhere, Everywhere) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roald Dahl's Cookbook (Penguin cookery library) (Paperback)
This is not your regular cookbook. It is part memoir, part love letter to family members and part recipe book. His words and wisdom are warm and touching and, whilst many of the recipes seem to hark from another, slower era, it is a fascinating read, along the same lines as Jane Grigson or Elizabeth David. Deeply British.
