A fine survey September 7, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Fans of either Lidia's previous Italian cuisine books or Italian regional fare will appreciate LIDIA'S ITALY, a fine survey that blends regional specialties and dishes with culinary descriptions proceeding each dish. Color photos throughout assure browsing pleasure and details that lend to easy duplication of appearance, while the author's personal experiences and insights jazz up the results. Highly recommended for any library strong in international cooking in general or Italian regional specialties in particular.

Lidia's Delicious Food September 6, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have all of Lidia's cookbooks and enjoy all of them. This one is particularly interesting because it helps you to learn about Italy. The recipes are easy to follow and make wonderful meals.
Squisito! September 5, 2007 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
Lidia's Italy is a perfect confection of a cookbook - it provides cultural history, delicious recipes that seem to have been hand-picked with loving care and presented in meticulous detail & beautiful photographs [my only grouse is that all the dishes were not accompanied by pictures]. I have only tried a couple of recipes so far, but they have turned out well, and my favorite is the palacinke [crepes with chocolate and walnuts]...an outstanding Italian cookbook from a master chef!
Terrific June 21, 2007 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
Do I really need another cookbook? No. But there's always an exception and this is it. I've tried several recipes and they're easy and company perfect at the same time. Plus, the overview of Italy has super general reading value. Wonderful color photos and coverage of landscapes from where all these great eating suggestions originate.

She's the queen of Italian cooking and this book is just another great addition to all her other cook books. Highly rated in my eyes.
