Title: We love this book...and the food.
Product review: Well, I guess I am not as high-level of a cook as the previous reviewer thinks you need to be in order to enjoy Thai cuisine. We LOVE the Cookshelf Thai book and have no complaints about it. My husband and I have enjoyed many of its recipes and have not had a hard time with the directions making sense. What some may view as a dumb-downed version of Thai cooking is actually what we would consider a fun way to enjoy Thai without making it into your part-time job. We love the Pad Thai recipe (which always turns out delicious and is a whole lot more authentic than the box mix most people get from the store). We also love the Green Chicken Curry, the Thai-Spiced Cilantro Chicken, the Mango Coconut Smoothie and the Coconut Rice. We cook from it weekly and many of our friends have enjoyed the recipes as well. And considering that I bought the book for a buck, I've been nothing but happy with it.
