1.		Second Helpings of Roast Chicken (Ebury Paperback Cookery) from Ebury Press Price: £4.99 Customer Review: I have to be honest, I am not normally drawn to this sort of `cookbook', but I am so glad I was and looked inside! A friend described this book as a `grown-up' cookbook and I now understand what she meant! Within the pastel covers are not the oodles of colour photos that would normally... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		Week in Week Out from Quadrille Publishing Ltd Price: £13.00 Customer Review: I too, was misled by the title into thinking this would be everyday recipes, arranged by the seasons, but it turns out that 'Week in, week out' refers not to the cooking but to the writing of his weekly column in the Independent. Although there are 52 columns there are no headings and no very... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Roast Chicken and Other Stories (Ebury Paperback Cookery) from Ebury Press Price: £7.80 Customer Review: I got this cookbook for Christmas and 1 year later, I've made a fair few of the recipes within the covers. They have been without exception delicious. I also like the writing on French food which I'm not particularly knowledgable on. I find some voyeuristic pleasure in reading what this guy has to... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Eating for England: The Delights and Eccentricities of the British at Table from HarperPerennial Price: £3.99 Customer Review: "Eating For England" is re-heated "Toast". Disappointingly, Slater has produced a clunker here, and where Toast worked because he linked food memories to his own childhood, this latest volume lacks any structure on which to hang various short observations and sketches about food. What's more, it's... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		Gammon and Spinach and Other Recipes (Pan Cooks) from Pan Books Price: £5.49 Customer Review: I first came across Simon Hopkinson via the Independent newspaper's weekend food article during the 1980s, and was attracted to the way he describes both the "how" and the "why" of recipes. For example anyone reading his instructions for making a risotto are left in no doubt that this is a dish... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		How to Cook the Perfect... from Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd Price: £13.00 Customer Review: I have admired Marcus Wareing as a chef from taking over at the Savoy Grill and Petrus. He was also exposed to a wider audience during the Great British Menu series for the Queen's birthday. But for this book I agree that we needed a return to basic about things in some ways and the writing... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Rick Stein's Mediterranean Escapes from BBC Books Price: £11.53 Customer Review: There's no greater way to inspire the wanton traveller than books about the places he wishes to visit. I came across this book at the exact time I began planning an upcoming trip around the med. I've been engrossing myself in Mediterranean cooking for some years now, and wanted to expand my... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		Made in Italy: Food and Stories from Fourth Estate Price: £12.99 Customer Review: I bought this book on a whim whilst on holiday and now find myself reading it from cover to cover. The whole concept is to put the food and the chef in context; the book reads like no other cookery book I have come across. A whole range of ingredients are explained in short essays throughout the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Ottolenghi: The Cookbook from Ebury Press Price: £16.25 Customer Review: I'm sorry but I found the design of this book really irritating! The pages are too narrow, while white space paddles around cramped text. I am sure the recipes are divine, and when I stop being annoyed by the layout, I'll tackle one!

10.		Recipes from a 3 Star Chef from Quadrille Publishing Ltd Price: £19.95 Customer Review: Quite simply the most delicious culinary book I have seen or read in ages. The photography is sublime, the content supreme and the whole read a pleasure. If the photography doesn't have you reaching for the pots and pans, nothing will. However the pleasure is complete when attempting the recipes... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
