Bluff Your Way in Gourmet Cooking

Rating:
Summary: A very humorous read, but not a guide
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed the half hour it took to read this book - that is to say that if you're in the mood for a tongue-in-cheek discussion about gourmet cooking, this is excellent. It is, however, not an instructional book whatsoever. It discusses different utensils and real styles of cooking, but it does not offer advice or recipes. Great as a fun gift to accompany some real cooking stuff.
