Summary: My favorite Greek cookbook
Comment: I have cooked from Ms. Yianilos' book for thirty years, and continue to use it as a trusted friend for cooking for buffets, and small dinner parties, as well as for family dinners. The recipes are inventive, complex, and tasty. They do make more than the author suggests: if she says something serves four, it probably serves eight. But I would never give up my copy for anything!

Summary: Good Book, but intimidating if you don't know Greek Food
Comment: This book is definitely complete in the types of Greek receipes that are contained within its pages. It covers the basics and the unordinary. This is not a cookbook for someone who is wanting to casually explore cooking greek food though. Because it doesn't contain any pictures, I found it quite daunting determining what to start cooking. While most receipes seem simple, I find some of the organization difficult to follow because so much is packed in -- specifically the appetizer section. There are some nice introductions for charters which talk about the history of greek cooking, where to buy greek foods, greek cheeses, serving sauces, etc. These all add a nice touch for explaining what to do. Each receipe also has the greek name in greek and its phonetic pronuciation. For someone who knows Greek food and has cooked Greek food before than this is a excellent compilation. But if you don't know much about greek food and don't want to digest a whole cookbook to learn what to do, than I would recommend shying away from purchasing.

Summary: after twenty years, she is still the BEST
Comment: I started using Theresa Yianilos' cookbook so many years ago that the book's spine is now split, the pages are stained and dog-eared, and the whole book has a resinous and spicy odor. She understands Greek food, and she can get those of us who are not Greek to cook it well enough to make our mouths water. It is, simply, one of my all-time favorites.
