These recipes are QUITE fancy and if you're looking to make high-end food I definitely think you need a cookbook and not something you could just off internet recipes. I loved how they used both cups/grams/mL/oz so that no one will have to go through the confusion of converting everything. Despite the recipes looking extremely classy and therefore complicated, the recipes are not crazy involved and they break each component down by labelling them in different sections in the instructions. This doesn't seem like it would help very much, but it makes it feel a lot more attainable than just having a giant page of instructions with everything mixed in. Overall, seems like a lovely book for anyone who wants to impress.

This is a lovely cookbook. The recipes are on the fancier side (in terms of ingredients and sometimes technique), so this would be the type of book that you would pull out for special occasions. I liked all the bits of informations and stories about Hawksworth and his life and career; it gave a personal touch with I always enjoy in my cookbooks. A great addition to any foodies cookbook collection.
