I misunderstood what this one was. I thought it was more of a cooking guide but it's a kind of graphic novel or memoir.

Oh, I wanted to read this book so badly. I will have to wait until it comes out it seems. I could not download it on kindle. I will be looking for it as soon as it comes live. It seems just like a book I would want to read.

Thank you, NetGalley for the advance copy to review.

fun little book for food lovers. Long writes/draws a comic on food for Le Monde and some of the book is drawn from there. There are biographical bits, foodie vacation adventures and car pooling with a chef to the swimming bool. There are some simple, do-able recipes and ideas for simple meals, and quite a few ideas for black radishes, if you happen to be awash with those. Some of the humor doesn't translate well, but those instances are few and far between. Overall, it was quite an enjoyable read, and I look forward to Volume 2.

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* so I knew this was a comic before I read it but I did expect there to be more recipes per season but fall and winter had some great sounding recipes lol

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. My opinions are my own.

I've read a lot of cookbooks. Never before have I read one in graphic novel form, and never have I read one before that had me chuckling throughout. This is not a mere cookbook. This is a funny, interesting book about food done in graphic novel form. The author Guillaume Long, talks of his travels and the food he tried, provides some interesting recipes, and gives many food and cooking tips. (I'm definitely buying a garlic mill.) There are instructions on making good crepes (I must try) and good omelets. There are running themes and funny jokes (breaded fish, anyone?) that will keep you smiling. I'm trying many of the recipes, especially the chocolate cake. If you are a foodie, you will love this book. Just give the format a try. If you already read graphic novels, and are interested in food, you will love this book. It's a gem. Although I did get a digital copy in exchange for a review, I'm buying a hard copy for myself. It's that good.

Although the recipes are in graphic novel form, there is an index at the back that shows you how to find them. I read it through first as a funny, foodie, graphic novel, and then went back through the index to find the recipes I wanted.

This was a cute quick read. It wasn't mind-blowing, but I picked up a few helpful cooking tips. I really liked the lists in the book.

I really enjoys the recipient in this one but felt like it could have done more. Idk how to explain it beyond that but it was just meh
