I bought this mainly because I am a Dragon Age completionist (ask me about the really bad Orson Scott Card comic!) but ended up being thoroughly charmed by both the beautiful food photography and the in-universe commentary. Back when I first played Origins, the cook in the Castle Cousland kitchen was one of the first NPCs to give me a quest. I enjoyed her son's introductory notes and the little nuggets of lore very much.
I'm not sure how much use I'll get out of it as an actual cook book - although the metric conversion chart in the back is appreciated, adjusting American recipes is still a pain in the neck - but it's certainly given me some delicious ideas and I'm delighted to have it. Definitely recommended if you're the kind of Thedas tragic who's excited to learn what Vivienne eats for breakfast!

It might seem kind of silly to be reading a cookbook, but this Dragon Age cookbook includes little anecdotes with each recipe that were entertaining to read. The anecdotes included details like where in Thedas the chef got the recipe from and which characters from the games enjoyed each dish. There were references to party banter and even jokes amongst the fandom, which I found amusing.
Some of the dishes that were included were provided by and credited to different people who had worked on the games, which I thought was a cute little touch. Are there dishes that I can see myself making? A few, sure. The vast majority however, I don't think I'll ever be attempting. It's a fun book to have on my shelf though and the photos for each recipe are beautifully done!
I could see this irking some people since Dragon Age is an RPG and players' world states may differ from one another based on choices made throughout the games. In this book, the author's decided that Alistair was King of Ferelden and the Hero of Ferelden was Cousland, the human noble. I can't say this had much of an effect on me but if someone who is strongly against making Alistair king were to read this, then I can see it annoying them.

I love the atmosphere of Thedas, so I had to get this. Happy with the variety of recipes. Some of them are outlandish to my part of the world, but I did find a traditional recipe in there, which was surprising and endearing. We make the Stuffed Vine Leaves, a Tevinter dish, every holiday, so maybe I'll try Thedas' recipe this Christmas. Mostly, I'm looking forward to trying Sera’s Yummy Corn or one of the drinks. Black Lichen Bread looks good too.

Fun cookbook, not totally practical.

this was really cute! I can't speak to the recipes but I enjoyed getting a thedas food tour from a brother genitivi-like cook.

Incredible photography, however many of the recipes didn't particularly appeal.

It's cute but I kind of wish the little blurbs had more references to past characters in them.

I got this as a Christmas gift from my godmother and it's very cute. I feel very nostalgic that someone from Cousland's castle is the "author."
I do wish that Devon name dropped some more notable NPC's instead of almost entirely companions as it does feel less immersive and more like a game fanboy's diary occasionally.
I'm not sure why there's two chocolate cakes. Especially since a cookie recipe is an obvious choice for both Sten and Sera.
Also Shepard's Pie is clearly not a stew. That was a bit bizarre.
The story around the cinnamon rolls was quite rambling and not particularly relevant.
I liked the Hissing Drake story and Merrill's Blood Soup. I look forward in particular to actually trying Merill's soup.
I can't imagine why anyone would want to make the Lamprey Cake, considering it's just a worse version of a snake/dragon cake.
Very grateful for the conversion page in the back.
