My new favorite September 12, 2008

I grew up in New Orleans but never had the pleasure of eating at any of Susan Spicer's restaurants. How unfortunate that is! I can only imagine what that dining experience must be like now that I've been using this cookbook regularly. My husband and I cook a lot..out of Food & Wine, Cook's Illustrated, Bon Appetit. We've both been duly impressed by the meals and desserts we've prepared from Crescent City Cooking and look forward to cooking our way through the entire book. Did I mention that the book is as beautiful as the food is delicious? This is one of my favorite gift for the newly married couple. Well done!
Please write another book soon!!! March 23, 2008

Amazing sophisticated flavors! Nobody would ever guess most of the recipes are so straightforward, taking much less time and effort than so many other cookbooks. I've never bought my mom a cookbook, and this will be the first! I can't wait until Susan Spicer publishes another book!

I received this book about three weeks ago, and have cooked almost exclusively from it since it arrived. Not one thing has disappointed. I sent my daughter a copy, since she spent most of a visit copying recipes from mine. We did the shrimp boil while she was here (delicious) with the epiphany lemon tart for dessert. Since then, my husband and I have enjoyed the shrimp with green chile cheese grits, and the Madeira mushrooms over goat cheese croutons. I've been reading it like a novel in bed at night, anxiously awaiting the next meal I can make from it. The photographs are beautiful, the writing approachable. Buy it.
Best of year! February 13, 2008

My wife says this is the best cookbook she's used this year. And I love the pictures.

I travel a lot in the USA and abroad and naturally have to eat out a lot. I think Bayona Restaurant in New Orleans is the best that I have ever visited. That's Ms Spicer's flagship restaurant. She shares some of her recipes from Bayona along with other of her restaurants and some that are just "personal" I think. The recipes are generally not overwhelming to make and belive me - anything with this lady's touch is worth tasting. It's a no-brainer of a buy.
