I enjoyed this book as much for the recipes as the look into the culture of Brazil. I am excited the try the recipes. This isn't the best cookbook I've ever read but I still find the recipes inside to be of beautiful value.

The book is well written giving much thoughts and aspects of the way of life in Brazil. As much as I love the food and cuisine of Brazil.. the ingredients for most recipes are hard finds. I wish those exotic ingredients will be more available in the US side.
