Title: Decent content; grotesquely distracting layout & "artwork"
Review: While Flay's recipes are pretty good, the totally obnoxious layout and distracting so-called artwork make this a rather difficult book to work from. One has to wonder if the same Food Network consultant had a hand in both this one and the equally badly presented "Emeril's TV Dinners". It's a pity when otherwise good chefs are presented as idols, and their recipes get lost in the glare. If you can, take a look at it in a local library or bookmonger and see if you can deal with it before purchasing a copy.
