5.0 out of 5 stars i worship ruth, August 18, 2000

By	Catherine Rhys (Charlottesville) - See all my reviews

This book is great! I've tried all the vegetarian and seafood dishes at this point and have loved each and every one. This is Thai food at its best. It's been better than a lot of stuff I get at Thai restaurants, and it's soooo easy. Ingredients are very easy to find no matter where you are.

Ruth is the woman!

By	Julie Hindra (NY, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This is a wonderfully clear, concise cookbook with easy-to-follow recipes and colorful photos that represent various Thai dishes and the lovely art of Thai display. The book fits perfectly on any shelf, and the spiral allows it to lay flat so you can simultaneously follow directions and prepare food. It is well arranged and thought out, and the mouth watering recipes are simplified for people on the go. This is a definite for your cookbook collection! Highly recommended.
