About the Author
Famous for the communal table at his tiny Sydney cafe, Bill Granger was serving his parents breakfast in bed by the time he was five. He opened his first restaurant, bills, when he was only 22 and quickly made his reputation with simple scrambled eggs and ricotta hotcakes. Even the New York Times sings his praises as the "egg master of Sydney". Today, his simple no-fuss cuisine is loved by the rich and famous, not to mention the loyal band of locals who regularly dine at bills and bills 2. With two best-selling cookbooks behind him, Sydney Food and bills food, Bill has been a contributor to numerous publications, including the ABC delicious, magazine.

Buy this. You will love it.
It's near impossible to find a cookbook that isn't packed with recipies calling for butter, bacon, and heavy cream. Many of the options in Bill's Open Kitchen are delicious, diet friendly, and quick. What's more, -every single- recipe comes with a lovely photo of the finished product, so you know in advance what looks appealing.
Hooray for food!

I spent a month in Sydney and was invited by a friend to brunch at Bill Granger's restuarant. The food was so unbelievably good that it led me to buy his cook book that same day. Unlike other famous cook book's Bill's menu items are actually detailed in his book. The recipees are not difficult and are accompanied by refreshing photos. The recipees are fusion and fresh ingredients from the market are a must. Well worth the purchase!

One of Bill's signature is always his easy to make but impressive recipes. This book is great if you're a new cook and want to learn some tips on jazzing up your dish using basic ingredients. Uses ingredients from all over the world, thus providing the cook lots of variety and ideas.
My only grouse is that if you have one of Bill's other book already, this one is not much different from the other, only a twist of dressing or sauce or different ingredient to make up another version of a dish.

The Lemon-Lime Tart Should Stay in the Land Down Under
I made the Lemon-Lime Tart this evening. Bill's measurements, oven temperatures, and cooking times were all slightly off. The shortbread crust was pale, bland, and mushy. Read more
