Summary: When's the next book coming?
Comment: I was actually given this book by Todd English after dining in one of his terrific restaurants. As such, I just had to give some of the recipes a try. What incredible taste sensations! The fried green olives stuffed with sausage and goat cheese were outstanding and incredibly easy. I was also intrigued by his pointing out the dishes that his little daughter liked. I've cooked them for my own kids with tremendous results. Can't wait for the next book!

Summary: An Excellent Restaurant Cookbook
Comment: Many restauranteurs publish cookbooks featuring recipes from their restaurants. I have a fair number of these books.
This is the *only* such book that I return to, repeatedly. I've made the goat cheese and sausage stuffed olives, the Falling Chocolate Cake (many times and is as excellent as another reviewer said), the Fennel Salad, the Tuna Tartare, and probably a good number of other recipes. The outcomes are consistently good.
I've also eaten at Olives a fair number of times, so I'm confident that I'm capturing the essence of Todd's cooking.
This is a high-quality hardcover book with high-quality paper, meaning that it should survive in the kitchen for a good long time. The recipes are well-laid-out on the pages and easy to refer to while you're cooking (a stark contrast from my "old" Joy of Cooking - which I love but does have a shortcoming in this area).

Summary: Simple and Creative Recipes
Comment: Todd English has put together a masterful book that is at once imaginative and yet full of simply executed dishes. The new and different salad creations are the perfect start to the meat and vegetable entrees. He combines elegance and practicality flawlessly. I especially love his strong opinions about what to use and what not to use in his recipes. (He has a particular prejudice against cello spinach!) He also gives lots of helpful cooking hints along the way. This is a must-have for any cook who enjoys intimate dining.
