5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorites, July 15, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Specialties of the House: A Country Inn and Bed & Breakfast Cookbook (Hardcover)
While this has hundreds of diverse recipes, representing the foods of the regions of the U.S., one of its strengths is in plenty of recipes that can be prepared the night before. Just think, all these innkeepers who have to serve breakfast don't want to be up before dawn cooking and they pass these recipes for excellent breakfast statas casseroles, etc on to us! Nothing like putting a baking dish in the oven in the morning and breakfast is done! This is a huge, tastefully compiled cookbook.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great recipes, watch directions, December 17, 2007
This review is from: Specialties of the House: A Country Inn and Bed & Breakfast Cookbook (Hardcover)
This volume contains a huge variety of useable and interesting breakfast and brunch ideas. Be careful, however, that the directions and ingredients are complete. For instance, one recipe for Cherry Almond muffins omitted any salt for six cups of flour, didn't instruct to combine the wet and dry ingredients, and said that the yield is one dozen when the volume is much greater. I plan to use this book a lot, as so many ideas sound so good.
