 It's ok June 17, 2008
I thought this book was ok in the sense it had some good recipes but if you don't live in a city like me I would rather have picked some of his recipes from the food network. I'm also a picture freak when it comes to cooking. Even though I don't follow a recipe to a tee I like to see what it looks like for each of the dishes. He only has a picture for every 2-3 recipes. Also, many of the recipes, unless your a true-italiano, i wouldn't cook a lot of what he has printed. But obviously my opinion only and everyone has different tastes
A Major Disappointment June 14, 2008
This is the first Batali cookbook I have purchased and I have to say that I am really disappointed. What a major mistake to prioritize quantity of recipes over quality. Yes, there are 327 recipes in this book, but I found that the recipes are bland or at the other end of the spectrum, too unusual. I prefer Lidia Bastianich instead. Her style of writing is more precise, and the results are absolutely spot on. The only reason why I have not given this book a lower rating is because I have certainly not tried the majority of the recipes. However, I am not sure that I want to waste my time.

Molto Bene, Molto Italiano March 4, 2008

This book is as slick and colorful as its author. The recipes are classic but there's plenty of room to make them your own. Some items may not be available in your area and it's made clear that ingredients may be substituted or omitted. Special equipment, though helpful, is not required. The book is authoritative yet simple enough for the beginner. The photography is stunning. There's a primer on wines. It has an Italian soul. What more could anyone want?Molto Italiano : 327 Simple Italian Recipes to Cook at Home
Super Book! February 13, 2008
Actually, this cookbook was purchased for my husband's birthday--he is the cook in our household. Mario is the chef he admires the most since he has a love for Italian cooking. Regarding the book, it's "wonderful!" and he can't wait to try all the recipes. (You can see how this was a left-handed gift!).
