5.0 out of 5 stars Great recipes good read, November 16, 2006

By	Hal Lamster (New York City) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a delightful cookbook, full of interesting background about Keys and the recipes that he presents. The recipes are generally straightforward and easy to follow, while being complex enough to provide an interesting mixture of flavors. My wife just loves the book and we are planning on having many wonderful meals from its recipes. I have dined at Keys restaurant in Ketchum (Sun Valley) Idaho and if you are anywhere nearby it is not to be missed. I have also dined at a private dinner that Keys and his staff prepared from the book. One of the best meals I have ever had.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vintage Restaurant makes me pass as a top chef, August 30, 2006

By	A. Laughton (New Paltz, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Every recipe that I've made from this cookbook has been mouthwatering & amaizing. the best part is that you don't have to be good a cooking to pull the dishes off. The cookbook is also designed so that you create a complete complimentary meal and not just one part of the entre. I love it

5.0 out of 5 stars A title that home chefs will welcome for its original dishes, August 18, 2006

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

VINTAGE RESTAURANT: HANDCRAFTED CUISINE FROM A SUN VALLEY FAVORITE comes from one who began his culinary career over thirty years ago, working in many restaurants before his Vintage Restaurant developed a blend of French cuisine and Western influence. VINTAGE RESTAURANT gathers these innovations for home cooks, offering up dishes that excel in unusual blends from a Szechwan Carrot Soup to Asian Mahogany Chicken Bowl and more. Color photos throughout add the finishing touch and flair to a title that home chefs will welcome for its original dishes.
