Wow! December 9, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is a work art and beautifully put together. Such a great concept and conversation piece - esp the shot of Anthony Bourdain! I have also tried a few of the recipes - some are surprisingly simple but sooooo delicious. Great book for your coffee table and the price makes it a great gift too - there's something for everyone and they'll think you spent a lot more...
A wonderful coffee table book! December 3, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was a beautifully photographed book, that can be enjoyed by the followers of celebrity chefs anywhere. It's fun, creative, and shows a different side of some of the best known chefs in the world.

What an interesting book. The combination of the words with the photographs is intriguing. It is nice to see someone paying attention to the portraits of the chefs and not just focusing on the photos of food. It is the perfect hostess gift and frankly it is cheaper than a bottle of decent wine!
I love this book November 21, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the first time I've felt compelled to review anything on Amazon but I'm a total foodie and I enjoyed browsing through this book so much. The photos are amazing. Each one is staged so differently and has a completely different feel. It really gives you a view into the chef's personality that I haven't seen elsewhere. In fact, some of these chefs I had only read about but had never seen a photo of, like Lydia Shire or Ferran Adria. Melanie Dunea really knows how to entertain with her photographs. I could look at them for hours. What the chefs say about their last meals is also really interesting to read. It also made me hungry. I highly recommend this book for foodies and anyone interested in the chef culture, or anyone else. It's highly entertaining and would make a great gift (I bought an extra for my friend who is also a foodie).
