This is a very pretty little book, written for a beginner cook or a youth. The recipes are all very simple, and seem genuinely indicative of the common food eaten in East Africa. Unfortunately, there's just not very many of them and not much information about each country.

I enjoyed the recipes, especially mung bean stew.

I love learning about different cultures. And this book has helped a lot. And I want to use some of these recipes to see how they come out. Hopefully they come out as good as they look.

Very few recipes. What few there are form a hodge-podge from dramatically different cuisines. Why would Ugandan food and Ethiopian food be in the same book? The text, photos, and recipes are non-enticing.
