Bakery Lane Soup Bowl Cook Book

Rating:
Summary: A good book for a novice cook
Review: I bought this book about 20 years ago, and it has a 1970's appeal to it. The foods remind me of little restaurant you might stumble across and be delighted to find that they serve decent, wholesome food. I especially like the Cheddar Cheese Soup, and they offer some basic salad recipes that one can follow verbatim or use as a springboard for your own creations. This would make a good gift for a novice cook because it offers many familiar recipes that are easy to make.

Summary: Yummy!, Challenging! and Fun!
Review: I came by this cookbook by way of a patient giving it away because she no longer cooked. Since I am an avid cook I gladly accepted it. The recipes have an old East Coast flavor. My 2 favorite recipes are: Shaker Chicken and Noodle Soup and Fresh Apple cake with Caramel Frosting which I just finished icing today.

Summary: Get this book
Review: I used to work as a waitress at the Bakery Lane Soup Bowl when I was in college. The soup and bread and desserts were great then. And with the help of this book you can keep these wonderfully homey dishes alive years after the restaurant has passed on!

Summary: Legendary chocolate cheesecake.
Review: Visited this little restaurant in Middlebury, Vermont many times, many years ago. This cookbook captures the quality and creativity of the Soup Bowl's menu and has been a perennial in my kitchen for close to 25 years. Don't be disappointed by what seems like a small number of recipes, they are all terrific.
