Title: Really wanted to like, BUT
Product review: I have to agree with the other reviewer who found some recipes dry and tasteless. Several years ago I had an opportunity to visit the Inn. The book purchase was to be a trip momento as well as a working cookbook - my family loves brunch/tea items.Unfortunately, I haven't found one recipe that's "a keeper." Everything I've made from it has come out technically okay and is edible, but is either dry (if cake) or not particularly tasty (if a savory dish). There are a lot of recipes, so maybe there's something in the index that tastes as good as it sounds. However, I don't think at this point I want keep trying 'just one more,' knowing the work, ingredients, or leftovers are likely to go to waste. Wish I knew which recipes the other reviewers particularly liked.I do really like the book's design/layout, including the vintage Victorian illustrations, and enjoyed visiting the Inn.
