Summary: Remember -- there are various level of vegetarianism
Review: The recipes are refreshing -- even if they call for "chicken broth.
You can always substitute Vegetable broth for the chicken broth --- need to be creative in substituting ingredients suitable to your idea of vegetarian.

Summary: The book title should be 'ASIAN Red Meat Abstainer FEAST.'
Review: The recipes look good except...What part of a chicken is vegetable? This book contains a recipe for chicken stock in which several other recipes state: 'chicken stock or vegetable stock.' Also, there are a few recipes that use dried shrimp, clam sauce, oyster sauce, or fish sauce. Also, for those who don't eat eggs, this cookbook is packed with recipes that use eggs or egg noodles. If it bothers you to see the word chicken all over, or if you don't like making substitutes for the sea meats or eggs, avoid this cookbook.
