Rating: 3 stars
We here at BookFetish aren’t in the habit of reviewing cookbooks. However, I was ready for a much-needed break from all the vampires, paranormal and other unnamed (and un-reviewed) mediocre fiction I’ve been forced to read these past few months.
Being the fearless reviewer that I am, I’ve been known to jump into the middle of a book series without care or thought that I may not be able to figure out what's going on.
Unlike my confusion with the 19th book of J.R. Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series, I managed to pool the dwindling resources of my aging brain and unravel the mystery that is Wilbur’s 3rd book in the Top Secret Restaurant Recipes series… Although I must admit that despite the recipes looking quite good, I haven’t had time to test them, as I’m too busy reading and reviewing books…
Todd Wilbur seems to have the life—flitting from chain restaurant to chain restaurant ordering fattening goodness so that he can deconstruct the recipe for the average Joe to make at home “for less”. However, I’m willing to bet T.G.I. Friday’s three course meal for $12.99 is providing some stiff competition for that claim.
From appetizers to main courses, with a special cocktail to wash it all down, Top Secret Restaurant Recipes3 aims to provide the restaurant experience without the annoying wait.
