This is a great cookbook for anyone who loves food. Cotter constantly excites and surprises with colours, textures and of course tastes. Some of the recipes are elaborate and require some preparation but all that I have cooked so far have been well worth the effort. His restaurant in Cork is a little gem too by the way.
The first Cafe Paradiso cookbook. Great recipes that all work. They can be a bit over-elaborate but lend themselves well to amendment and deconstruction into their component elements. The book itself is beautifully designed.
Denis Cotter is Ireland's greatest vegetarian chef and runs the best vegetarian restaurant (in Europe?) in Cork. Every recipe I've tried in this book, as in his others, works. Beautiful book design too.
