Got the Glow June 3, 2008 K. Carter 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Absolutely love this book. The images of the food are excellent. There is an explanation for the kinds of food they use, and most importantly, the recipes excellent. The dishes are colorful and imaginative.
Haute cuisine May 30, 2008 Welsh Bard (United States) 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have to say that after reading a chapter in this book, I felt as if I did not fit the criteria to attempt to belong to this elite group of people, "raw foodists." This couple sounds quite smug about themselves in general and seems to suggest a superior mindset. The recipes are OK and interesting, but the overall style is condescending. I may change my mind eventually, but first impressions are important! Read something more down-to-earth and not written by such important "chefs." It will make more sense in the long-run.
Beautiful people, exotic recipes, but not entry-level May 27, 2008 Anita Williams (Seattle, WA USA) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I read this book but was glad I didn't purchase it sight-unseen. I am a newer entry into raw-foodland, and the "real world" reference in the title is very misleading. This is the book you want to buy *after* you've gotten your feet wet, committed fully to the life, mastered all the basics, and have the time, equipment, and resources to take it to the next level. Honestly, I found Ani Phyo's book to be much more useful, down-to-earth, and realistic for the everyday cook.
Beautiful Gourmet Raw Food May 7, 2008 LiveMusic (South Carolina) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I borrowed this book from the library so many times I decided I might as well go ahead and buy it. The photographs are beautiful and the authors' commentary and story of their raw food journey are inspirational. The recipes are gourmet and some are quite complex -- being a beginner, I tend to make just parts of them. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this volume.
awesome book April 14, 2008 a girl in Canada 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
this was my first raw food book I bought and I made about 90% of the recipes. amazing! the buckwheat cereals are to die for and the corn chips just the same. thank you for this book!
