This book was recommended by a friend who works at a food mag, and lovely as it is I honestly have made about 2 recipes from it. It's mostly good for its beautiful pictures, which are inspiring in the best way.

The nice photography by Petrina Tinslay accentuates the food styling of Donna Hay. The clean "Australian look" is apparent in all of the shots. And there many interesting recipes, too!

beautiful book, but a lot of the recipes require special ingredients
