 Probably the most expensive book I have ever bought July 25, 2004
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Why? Because no sooner had I finished leafing through it than I was planning a trip to Scotland to take in some of the establishments which it features. One of the two reviews before mine said that this was not really a cookbook that you would turn to for a particular recipe and that's probably true. The other had apparently bought this book as a reminder of a stay in Scotland, but went on to suggest that this is a book that you will reach for when you want inspiration for a dinner party. If you adore Scottish food then this will be frequently.
OK, so there's more than one lemon tart, but which is best?
But the bottom line is that this book is for everyone that has either stayed in any of the establishments featured - or aspires to!
 Aspirational cooking February 16, 2004
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
A beautifully produced book but is it one you will use often? By asking top chefs for their favourite menus, in an effort to show off their skills and promote their establishments, many give complex recipes. The background to the areas, history of the food are interesting and seeing photos of the chefs adds a nice personal touch. All the meals do indeed look mouth-watering and the contributors (quite rightly) pride themselves on using local produce but this means that if you don't have good access to varied, fresh seafood (lobster, scallops, ling) and game (esp. venison) you may be stuck to repeat them. Also have you ever seen vie de poivre William in your local Sainsbury's?? Another criticism would be that there are no less than four versions of lemon tart!In short, it's definitely a lovely book to flick through, read and inspire you to get your apron on but you may find yourself turning to a more user-friendly book to actually cook from.

this book brings together the the dramatic scenery and cuisine of scotland. you either have to live there or holiday there to appreciate what the book is trying to do. For food lovers and those who are inspired to cook this is the book for you.The photographs are inspiring so much so that you want to frame them and enjoy in your own home with either a good wine or what makes scotland famous. the recipes are well thought out and so well balanced that you want to try them out on your own dinner party guests. simple enough that the enthusiast will try them out to enjoy the art of the chef that created them.
