20 Cookbooks in 1.......2007-09-13
Warning! If you purchase this book you will soon be purchasing several others. No seriously, this is a wonderful and really under rated book. I got it at a Christmas gift exchange last year and since then I have purchased 5 of the cookbooks listed after making and loving several of the recipes. This is a great book if you want to be exposed to chefs you might otherwise miss. The recipes are excellent, you get the feel of the cookbooks listed and you get to try the recipes before deciding on purchasing the books. It is laid out really well with an introduction by the cookbook author followed by several of the recipes featured in their books. This is also a great book if you are on a budget and can't just pick up 20 new cookbooks. Lastly, it is a perfect present because it has something for everyone. I strongly, strongly recommend it!
Great for those that want to try something new!.......2007-08-18
I love this book! I am 2/3 of the way through making each and every recipe. Yes, some of the recipes I won't make again but there is at least one recipe from each chef that is superb and I can't wait to make it again. My family personally liked the Grilled Tuna Salad with Habanero mayo from Bobby Flay and Devil's Chicken Thighs with Braised Leeks from Sunday Suppers at Lucques has got to be the best thing I have ever made/eaten. The only negative thing I can say is that most of the asian recipes have ingredients that you can't get at a mainstream grocery store. There is a great variety of recipes and it is very fun to always have something new to make.
Also, the recipe of Baked Pasta with Ricotta and Ham doesn't have a misprint. If it is read correctly the instructions first say to add the tomato sauce to some other ingredients and then later it says to start layering the sauce mixture in the pan.
Finally, if you like Brussel Sprouts as much as I do there is a recipe for Shredded Brussels Sprouts Salad that is absolutely divine!!
Needs editing........2007-08-12
Aviod this cookbook. After trying three recipes, I've decided to throw the book away (I wouldn't sabotage anyone else by donating this to a book sale). The first recipe I tried "Baked Pasta with Ricotta and Ham" has an error. There is a listing for 1 1/2 cups of tomato sauce in the ingredients list, instruction on step 2 to add the tomato sauce then step 5 again directs you to...add the tomato sauce. No divided amounts or 1 1/2 cups each. Your guess is as good as mine. The second recipe for "green chili soft tacos" is suitable for anyone on a bland diet. Boiled tofu has more snap. And the blueberry cake left me wishing I'd saved those poor, innocent berries for something tastier than a dessert which could be proudly served in any Dennys.

The third edition of Food & Wine magazine's The Best of the Best furthers a smart tradition. Like its predecessors, it presents the best recipes from the year's 25 best cookbooks, as chosen by the magazine. These include a stellar assortment culled from restaurant cookbooks, books by TV cooks, dessert books, and a miscellaneous gathering of other favorites. The range is wide and encompasses such dishes as Emeril Lagasse's Garlic Meatball Poorboys, Julia Child's Pot Roast, B. Smith's Jerked Roast Turkey, and Ming Tsai's Spicy Black Bean Mussels with Rice Stick Noodles. (Full disclosure: this reviewer coauthored Tsai's book Blue Ginger.) Readers searching for dishes of proven taste and workability should welcome this collection.
Including dozens of recipes for hors d'oeuvres and first courses through main dishes of all kinds and desserts, Best offers its selections with informative notes that reveal why the book was written, its special dishes, and why it was chosen for the collection, among other data. Thus readers discover, for example, that Learning to Cook with Marion Cunnigham, whose books include the complete revision of The Fannie Farmer Cookbook, was selected because it offered "basics in a way so calm, comforting, and complete that even the most skittish newcomer will be lulled into competency." Cunningham's recipe for Almond Butter Cake is a sure winner, as are other end-of-meal inclusions like François Payard's Warm Chocolate Tart and Alice Medrich's Apricot Lemon Bars. With a list of editor's choices (their year's best recipe is Café Boulud Cookbook's luscious Potato Gratin Forestier), color photos throughout, and a guide to the recipes' publishers, the book makes it easier than ever to cook the very best. --Arthur Boehm

Improved edition.......2004-08-30
I have several years of these food and wine samplers of the best recipes of the 25 best cookbooks of the year. This 2002 edition contains an improvement: recipes are organized by type rather than by cookbook of origin, making it a more usable work.
Suggestions for future editions include:
1) Multi-year index to all published editions
2) Author's name legibly on each page (this edition only has a tiny photo of the original book's cover
3) More F&W editorial comments describing the dish and what makes it great. (More like Best American Recipes edited by Fran McCullough).
4) Are so many celebrity cookbooks really the best of the year? I'm skeptical, as so few are on my list of "best cookbooks of all time." Cookbooks by single subject experts who put in years of effort and research before publication and cookbooks written by cooking teachers with a deep knowledge of their cuisine tend to make it to my "best of all time" list.

Another Best of the Best.......2007-08-16
Volume 10 is as good as its predecessors, if not better. As with the other volumes, this one covers the best 25 cookbooks of the year. They selected a rather nice mix of cookbooks from desserts to ethnic dishes, beginner to slightly advanced, and tv chefs to unknown authors.
Highlighted cookbooks include the Cake Book, Heirloom Baking with the Brass Sisters, the Essence of Chocolate, the Lee Bros. Southern Kitchen, Biba's Italy, Jamie's Italy, Giada's Family Dinners, the Food of France, New Greek Cuisine, the Food of Northern Spain, Lobel's Meat and Wine, the Good Home Cookbook, Barefoot Contessa at Home, How to Boil Water, Braise, the Red Cat Cookbook, A Ligurian Kitchen, On Top of Spaghetti, Stonewall Kitchen Favorites, Big Small Plates, Baja! Cooking on the Edge, the Kitchen Diaries, Spice, Sparks in the Kitchen, and Cucina of Le Marche.
Each selection includes a brief introduction; several recipes, with notes on how to find or prepare ingredients and other tips; an exclusive recipe from the author; and beautiful full-page color photos of the finished dish. Not all recipes include pictures, however.
This is a must-read for anyone who loves cookbooks. Once again, I will seek out a handful of the chosen cookbooks to add to my collection. My only complaint that there seemed to be too much ethnic food (featuring somewhat exotic ingredients that may be hard to track down). I would have liked to have seen a few more books on more mainstream "American" dishes (with less exotic ethnic ingredients) and perhaps another book on desserts.
I've alerted Amazon twice to the fact that the photo they posted of the cover is from Volume 9 but they still haven't fixed it. You can see the correct cover photo at the Food & Wine magazine website (http://www.foodandwine.com/books) but their price is significantly higher so come back to Amazon to order it.

Tribal Rugs.......2005-05-27
4 and a half stars
A very informative book liberally illustrated with color plates of some of the most exceptional types of oriental rugs. An excellent commentary written by one of the real gentlemen of the rug business. The author offers some of his own unique theories and insights. Jim does tend to put emphasis on his own particular favorite types of rugs such as Persian tribal rug weaving so know that it is not a comprehensive guide. This in no way lessens the importance of this book. Good as a coffee table book for anyone who appreciates beauty as well as must have for the rug aficionado.
Product Description

Great basic reference for crafters.......2007-07-26
I bought this to replace my original. I was afraid it would get too worn out and I would be lost without it.
Easy to follow instructions with illustrations.
Great Reference.......2006-09-29
I actually have had this book for several years so this may very well be an updated version. Having said that, the one I have is just wonderful. It is full of easy to understand instructions for crocheting, embroidering, knitting, macrame, rugmakikng, sewing and tatting. A must have tool for stitchery crafts.
A Book for Beginners and Advanced!.......2003-10-31
I am 22 and I was semi-interested in the therapuetic art of stitchery but wasn't sure which kind of stitchery I wanted to take up. This book is great for beginners because it is easy to understand and gives easy step-by-step instructions and illustrations to follow. Also, this book would be great for advanced stitchers because it gives many variations to make simple or complicated patterns for knitting or crocheting. The book goes over knitting, crocheting, emboidery, applique, sewing,quilting,tatting and rug binding. I learned Every knitting stitch in two weeks!!!

Not what I expected, but great book!.......2007-03-30
I have been searching for a soup to nuts book on remodeling a kitchen. This book was more concentrated on the design aspects but provided valuable information such as seating space requirements (i.e.: how much room you need behind and to the sides) as well as design techniques to fit many different styles.
I have other books from Creative Homeowner that go much further into detail (Drywalling for example) but I was really hoping this book would give me more info on subfloors since I am planning to redo mine as part of the remodel.
All in all this is a fantastic book with many aspects of a kitchen remodel you would not normally think of (at least I didn't). The book is well thought out, well organized and a quick read.
I would recommend it if you are planning on remodeling a kitchen yourself, or even if you are contracting out the work.
Book Description
There are hundreds of full-color photographs with quick, easy ideas that will make a real difference in your home. All of the ideas and materials are accessible to the reader, and comes with a complete list of U.S. suppliers for the materials used.
Book Description
-Includes options for improving all areas of the kitchen.

An OK book, but it's NOT about remodeling.......2004-05-03
(Barely over 2.5 stars)
"Remodeling Kitchens" is a deceptive book, because it's not about remodeling at all. This book shows you SOME of the steps required to build a new kitchen, with many excellent photographs depicting the process. It illustrates several useful options for floor and countertop materials. The book doesn't tell you much of anything about how to remodel an existing kitchen. In fact, the book doesn't TELL a lot as a general rule. It SHOWS some of the steps involved in the building process. But if you want to do anything with walls, ceilings, windows, or doors in your kitchen you're out of luck; "Remodeling Kitchens" doesn't include any information on these topics. The last time I checked most kitchens had all of these features.
Remodeling information that's included:
- A few paragraphs (no pictures) about layering over existing flooring
- Remove trim & old cabinets
- Paint old cabinets
- Use existing waste-vent stacks
Remodeling information that's missing:
- Demolition
- Leveling a subfloor to prepare for new flooring
- Tying in to existing plumbing supply lines
- Relocating a sink
- Installing under-mounted sinks
- Refinishing cabinets other than by painting
- Fishing wires through walls
- Using remodel cans for recessed lighting
- Installing or repairing wall & ceiling drywall
- Adding finish treatment (paint, texture) to walls & ceilings
- Removing or installing windows and doors
- Adding window and door trim
Compared to the EXCELLENT Black&Decker hardcover books ("The Complete Photo Guide to Home Repair", "The Complete Photo Guide to Home Improvement") this 159 page paperback is a significant disappointment. It's got pretty good treatment on flooring and countertop choices and installation, and acceptable coverage of plumbing and wiring for new construction or major (start from the bare studs) remodeling. It's almost no help at all if you're considering a minor (leave all the walls in place) remodeling job.
Take my hand........2001-05-06

Customer Reviews:
Recommended by the accidental quilter!.......2000-12-30
Don't let the title fool you. Yes--this book is full of compelling kitchen decoration projects, but it is so much more than that. There are quilts, tablecloths, curtains, chair covers, totes, pillows, pot holders and matching directions for folk painting objects to go with the theme kitchens. There are four main kitchen themes. Vintage Kitchen is in red and white patchwork with redwork inserts. I'm crazy for redwork, country kitchens and antique oak. I have an antique wooden office chair that I have failed to paint and I'm going to make the chair cover in this book. The Koffee Klatch Kitchen is a log cabin theme in bright red, blue, yellow and white. I've got to make the table runner! Antique Fruit Kitchen has an apple quilt to die for. Folk Art Rooster Kitchen is warm browns, tans, and deep red. There are folk art pillows,a table runner,and a rooster on a stick that make me laugh and will no doubt make me sew! There's a chapter on kitchen completers too--more nonfabric projects! The color plates in this book are awesome and I want my kitchen to look like everyone of these themes! The directions are clear and have color pictures and diagrams! This book took an honorable mention in the Accidental Quilter's Quilting Book Award 2000. :)the accidental quilter

Customer Reviews:
hater.......2006-02-19
it is so bad
i hate it because i cant find certin things
not very creative.......2002-12-15
With the word creative in the title I was expecting a more original style of decorating, or at least a broader range of styles. Instead, the style of this book is primarily tradional/cosmopolitan. I do not like that style, so that is probably why I don't like this book. I found it rather boring. The photos are not too bad, but nothing special. I have to admit I was too turned off by the photos to bother reading much of the text, so perhaps the written information would be more useful to people, but I doubt it. Two other definitely more useful books would be The Kitchen Planner and Better Homes and Gardens Complete Kitchens. I reccomend that you skip this book.
Creative Home Design: Rooms for Everyday Living.......2000-06-27
This book is a wonderful design book. The photos are inspiring and show a broad range of modern and welcoming styles. The text accompanying them is very straightforward and details what limitations or problems the design overcame. It is difficult to imagine that the rooms will become dated - they appear to be very fresh, sensuous and appealing. I was able to take some ideas from various rooms and incorporate into my place. This book is very inspirational and allows one to view work of top designers and architects not readily accessible to the public.

Book Description
-Includes functional projects such as recycling bins, a utility cart and a kitchen island. -Designed for low to moderate skill levels.
Customer Reviews:
I highly recommend this book.......2002-06-01
This book contains detailed plans for making twenty different wooden items for your kitchen. Most of these projects are for the woodworker that I would call "lightly experienced," while a couple (such as building a gateleg table) might require a little extra experience. The power tools required for these projects include the circular saw, drill, jig saw, power sander, belt sander and router. This means that these projects are good for anyone experienced enough to have build up even a modest collection of tools.
The projects themselves include a list of power tools required, construction materials, a cutting list, exploded diagrams (I love these!), and step-by-step instructions, complete with many color photos to help you on track. Each of the finished products is highly attractive, and a worthy addition to any kitchen.
One important thing: this book is a spiral book, which means that it lays flat on a workbench, and holds its page without having to weight it down. I really enjoy this feature! I highly recommend this book.
In case you are interested, the twenty projects are: wine & stemware cart, plate drying rack, spice holder, vegetable bin (which came out beautifully!), pantry cabinet, mug rack, bread box, pot racks, recycling center (which the kids helped me to decorate), stepstool, cookbook/recipe holder, cookbook easel, utility cart, cooling rack, paper towel holder, silverware caddy, kitchen island, trivet, serving tray, and gateleg table.
