This beautiful book has been the source of wonderful meals, inspired by the deep, imaginative recipes, exploring the best of the Pacific Northwest. Schreiber puts his own interesting spin on classic flavor combinations. Recipes are complex, but are easily broken down into do-able steps. They are not overly chefy, and have been well tested for home kitchens. This was one of my favorite cookbooks of the year, and I own a lot of cookbooks.

Many have been the times I have savored the tastes of Cory Schrieber's Pacific Northwest cooking at his top Wildwood restaurant. To see his philosophy, outlook and family enveloped in these very real recipes featuring the foods and flavors of this rich region is simply a delight! The way Cory weaves local and history into the regional introductions of sensuous, but palate-cleansing dishes is simply amazing.

This is a book to be cooked from and curled up with on a rainy afternoon for a good read, and then to be drawn from the shelf again, and again.

Fantastic cookbook. Beautiful photos and recipes that are stunning.
Local foods and people. A must for anyone who enjoys food and life!

a good book full of good recipes - most are beyond my budget, but a few are very good.

The vendor was terrific...quick and efficient! The book very well packed and in mint condition! This cookbook is not easy to find. A terrific experience!

One of the best cookbooks in my collection.

What's really interesting to me is that almost every recipe in the book goes very well with a nice Oregon Pinot Noir.

I received this book very quickly and in perfect condition. I will definitely do business with them again!

Let me be clear - I have never laid eyes on this book. I bought it based on the description for a friend who lives in CA but is from the Northwest and is an avid cook. She absolutely loved it and continues to rave about it. Based on that, I give it a 5.
