The first recipe is the one that sold me on it, Pecan waffles with bacon maple syrup,. uhm, yes please and thank you.
Going through the cook book once shows many promising recipes to be made hopefully multiple times
The only thing that I dislike about the book at this point is the photo's. In the pages that they put the photo's there are more pictures of just "items" then there are of the actual recipes. Didn't understand how they decided to give the fullsized glossy pages to just mint leaves or what not, instead of the actual recipe facing that page.
