If you love noodles, this is the book for you. It's covers noodles from different cultures which is really nice to see the different types of noodle dishes out there.
Most of the recipes are easy to make with ingredients that you should have in your pantry.
My wife liked this book so much that she ended up purchasing this book for her mom.
A must have for noodle lovers.

Clear instructions with a creative flair! This cookbook caters to both the cooks who are new to cooking noodles and those who want to step up with new ingredients and recipes.

I loved this cookbook! As a lover of all noodles, I liked that it had lots of different styles of noodles, and the recipes were very easy to manage. It’s convenient that I live near an Asian market now for many of these different ingredients. This would make a wonderful gift.

Who doesn't love noodles? Considering the breadth of recipes here everyone loves them, everywhere. So many great recipes to try - excellent instruction. Yum!

Noodles make the world go round..... or do they tie everything together? I don't know but this book was a fun cookbook to read.
I liked that it included EVERY TYPE OF NOODLE! from pasta to traditional. They were all in there.

Noodles may be one of my favorite food groups of all time which made this book absolutely perfect for me. The book was full of both recipes and information about how noodles are made. The photography is well done, and the recipes are really to follow. Great book to have on your shelf for quick and delicious meals.

Noodles are definitely one of my all time favorite foods and would eat them every day if I could and there was probably a time when I did.There were many recipes and most had amazing photos to go with them, which is essential to a cookbook in my opinion...There is a breakdown of ingredients and equipment at the back of the book which could be super helpful.This is probably a book I will have to buy and keep for future reference...digital doesn't do it for me in that respect.

This cookbook was a great source of information for not only recipes but noodle history. I always have noodles in my house but I'm never sure what to make. This cookbook gives you all the ideas and ways to make your noodle dishes shine. It is one to add to your bookshelves and actually use in the kitchen.

A very nice cookbook! The material is well written and presented in an easy to follow manner. I look forward to trying out several of these recipes.

This book is a must have for anyone who loves noodles. The recipes are really easy to follow, plus there are lots of pictures for reference. I especially liked the Bun Bo Hue.

Very excited to dig into this book! Great recipes and beautiful images. It definitely has inspired me to get in the kitchen.

With thanks to Workman Publishing and NetGalley for access to the e-ARC of this book.
As someone who enjoys Asian noodle dishes I was pleasantly surprised by dishes from other cuisines included. The recipes are each to follow and they include suggestions on equipment to be used.
Theres something for everyone in this book!

I love noodles and this cookbook gave me some great ideas and advice on how to upgrade my noodle dishes!

I absolutely loved this book. I thought I knew a little something about the different kind of noodles and dishes, but this book opened my eyes and my appetite!

Love pasta but need some ideas on how to make innovative pasta dishes at home? That Noodle Life: Soulful, Savory, Spicy, Slurpy by popular bloggers Michael Le and Stephanie Le, who created I am a Food Blog, is a delightful cookbook dedicated to everyone who likes pasta prepared in unique ways. This beautiful cookbook has a colorful chart with photos of different shaped pastas and many different noodles from China, Italy, Japan, and other foreign places.

That Noodle Life is very colorful, and includes beautiful, mouthwatering photographs of almost every recipe. This makes for a cookbook with universal appeal. However, the uniqueness of the dozens of recipes is the main focus of the book. There are recipes using homemade fresh noodles (a recipe and instructions are included), store-bought dry noodles, and even ramen noodles. Sauces include recipes for flavoring sauces as well as main dish sauces using vegetables, seafood, meats and poultry. The sections on equipment and ingredients are very helpful, especially for beginning cooks.

That Noodle Life has enough recipes that give everyone an excuse to eat noodles and pasta with different sauces every day for months, without falling into the same old-same old cycle. The recipes are written in standard form and are easy-to-follow; everyone can make these recipes.

All told, That Noodle Life is a wonderful cookbook that belongs on everyone’s shelf. This is a fun book and is highly recommended.

Special thanks to NetGalley for supplying a review copy of this book.

This is a nice book and I do love noodles! I’m not sure it’s different enough to buy though. There are so many cookery books around. I did cook a couple of the recipes and they were successful so that’s good!

I have been following I am a Food Blog since its inception. Truffle mac and cheese was inspired back in 2012. Stephanie and Mike have come a long way from these earlier recipes to galvanizing their inspiration in the book That Noodle Life. This is a personal review for me since I have prepared a lot of recipes from their website. Some of these recipes feature in the book too. The term 'That Noodle Life' became somewhat my own and I found a home in the various noodle recipes I have read on their blog over the years. How does it differ from other Asian and Pan-Asian cookbooks? Some of these noodle recipes have quirky innovations which do not border on the exotic if you have a well-managed Asian pantry at home but the results might surprise you. They add a flair to the quick ramen or the common mac and cheese. The fact that the book showcases both Asian and Italian delicacies is a win-win. Thank you Net Galley for this review copy. I am definitely getting the physical copy because it is worth it.

This book was a delicious ode to pasta and I loved it. I enjoy pasta but in general for me it takes second place to anything potato. This book could change my mind. It had a ton of great recipes and scrumptious photos. It would also make a great gift for the pasta lover in your life.

Thank you, NetGalley, for an e-ARC of That Noodle Life by Mike and Stephanie Le.
I love noodles and was excited about finding new noodle recipes, but this book didn't offer a lot of options that would work for my family. Living in a blue collar, rural area without many specialty grocery stores, many ingredients would be difficult to locate. I did enjoy the extensive information about different types of noodles, sauces, and styles. The authors have done a lot of research and offer tips to make it easier to execute the recipes. Although this isn't a book I would add to my personal collection, it is a great addition for a library collection.

4☆ A Vibrant and Fun Cookbook!

I was very excited when I came across That Noodle Life Cookbook, as I love Noodles and have always been keen to experiment more.
Well I can definitely say this book has inspired me.
There is so many recipes I've never heard of before including some of the ingredients.
So I'll be needing to do some research first.

The ingredients are in cups, spoons and ounces which you may find you need to do some conversions to get the right metric system for you.
What I loved was how much thought has gone into creating this Cookbook, the added details such as making your own Noodles, guides to different Noodles including visual pictures, information about fresh, dry & frozen Noodles all adds to the experience.


This Scrumptious Book is full of delicious recipes made up by the following chapters:
* Comfort Noodles, * Easy Weekend Noodles, * For Date Night and Other Fancy Times, * Party and Potluck Noodles, * Noodles to Soothe Your Soul, * Layers on Layers of Lasagne, * Noodles Worth the Extra Effort..... So as you can see plenty of exciting inspiration to sink your teeth into!

That Noodle Life is vibrant, eye catching and has plenty of mouth-watering illustrations.
It would make a wonderful gift for someone who either loves cooking, is a foodie, collects cookbooks, or absolutely loves all things Noodles...then this book is 100% the Cookbook for you!


Thank you to Workman Publishing Company and Netgalley for this copy which I reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
