5.0 out of 5 stars Now there's an inviting revision to Dawn, Elaine and Selway Anthony's "Lebanese Cookbook", March 4, 2007

By	Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

Relatively few cookbooks cover Lebanese cuisine outside of the general Middle East, and those that do often omit color photos. Now there's an inviting revision to Dawn, Elaine and Selway Anthony's "Lebanese Cookbook" (a best-selling book and the first ever published outside Lebanon) which pairs over a hundred color photos with classic Lebanese dishes. From basic kibbi to Okra Stew, all the classics Lebanese recipes are here, making it an excellent pick for any library strong in international cooking, and an ideal addition to gourmet club member reference shelves.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Lebanese, March 8, 2007

By	Paula J. Rizk "Whitebear" (Cleveland, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Growing up Lebanese and learning to cook with Sitto(Grandma)and Mom taught me only our Lebanese region's ways. Now that I'm on my own, I'm learning to use all the region's talents to cook. There are many variations to these recipes throughout the regions , but this cookbook offers not only the traditional way of preparing the food but also some extra flare. Each recipe has been carefully explained and they have all tasted delicious.
