2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing as a "Coffee Cookbook", February 22, 2000
By A Customer
I bought this book shortly after receiving my new Espresso/Cappuccino machine because of the Starbucks name and because it was specifically titled and touted as being a "coffee cookbook." I expected to find it full of an assortment of recipes for coffee drinks. Instead, out of 92 pages, only 4 pages were dedicated to coffee drink recipes. Moreover, all of the 6 recipes were for iced drinks such as Iced Latte, Mocha Slush, etc.

The first 32 pages of the book are dedicated to romantic descriptions of places like Costa Rica, Kenya, and Kona where the various coffee beans are grown. Then, the rest of the "cookbook" is dedicated to food recipes like Breakfast Burritos, Twice Baked Potatoes, and Goat Cheese and Sun-Dried Tomato Stratta.

On a positive note, the book is beautifully photographed and the recipes do seem appetizing. However, it is definitely not the "coffee cookbook" that the cover proclaims it to be. The book's title and the Starbucks name are misleading. If you buy this book thinking that it is a coffee drink recipe book, then you will be sorely disappointed.
