The kids were fully intrigued by this book. We read it over a few days and then we’re off to the Asian market to explore all of the ingredients. The authors do an amazing job of explain the nuances of Thai cooking (including history and regions) and the ingredients needed. Not only did it get the kids excited about exploring Thai culture and food, it gave me a better grasp on how to cook Thai food. We loved this book, found it to be a valuable resource and are excited to add the hard copy to our cookbook collection when it comes out!

I enjoyed learning about Thailand and its food. The authors give you basic history and how it influenced the food in the book. The art is totally cute and I enjoyed looking at it as I read through. The instructions are detailed but easy to follow. I love how I was shown step-by-step how to fold spring rolls.
I really loved the pictures of the actual food that are incorporated. But there wasn't enough of them; I like to know how the food is supposed to look.

I love Thai food and comic boons this was a great combination of the two. Definitely lots of recipes that I'm looking forward to trying out.

A delicious introduction to Thai cooking! The authors share their backgrounds and favorite dishes along with historical and cultural notes about the regional foods of Thailand. The recipes are beautifully illustrated step by step, making them very easy to follow, and the sheer joy of cooking and eating comes through on every page. (Watch for Chef Mallika's happy lip-smacking expressions!) A real treat, not to be read on an empty stomach. 4 stars.
Thank you, Ten Speed Press and NetGalley, for providing an eARC of this book. Opinions expressed here are solely my own.

This was such a fun take on a cookbook - I loved that it blended narrative storytelling, graphic novel, and cook books! It provided an interesting take on the history and culture of Thai food, as well as food from a variety of geographical areas and their influences. For me, because this utilizes a lot of ingredients and techniques of cooking outside my comfort zone, it wouldn't be an easy cookbook to jump into, though I don't think this is broadly true. I LOVED that this illustrated the steps of cooking with illustrations, but the downside of that is that it began to feel a bit repetitive with the overlap across pages. Overall, a fun take on a cookbook!
