Operation purge cookbooks underway . . . but I'm keeping this one!

I love anything Caribbean, and I love Morgan Freeman, so I knew I couldn't go wrong with this cookbook. The photography is great, the stories are great, and the recipes are great. I loved all the little anecdotes from some of our favorite celebrities liek Ben Affleck, and Michael Douglas. More than just a cookbook.

This is beautifully photographed, but most of the recipes are either for things I'm highly allergic to or just wouldn't eat. It's also not for a casual cook- some of the techniques & ingredients are a bit fussy.

Great book about Caribbean Cooking and some interesting stories about some famous friends of Morgan Freeman. Highly recommend it.
