 Restaurant quality food from your kitchen! Nov 22, 1999
Every recipe I've tried tastes like it's from a quality Chinese restaurant. The recipes are easy to understand, I can find the ingredients in my local market, and the finished quality is consistently delicious.

Excellent first Chinese cookbook Sep 22, 1999
I came across this book recently and found it very useful for my initial experience at cooking Chinese. Although I'm a pretty proficient cook,, I've never had much success trying Chinese dishes before. The difficulty I'd had with some of the other well-known Chinese cookbooks is that they are too complicated if you've never cooked with some of the ingredients before -- too many variables for the novice. This book takes a somewhat simpler, yet satisfying approach. It doesn't lack interest. I think I'll learn a great deal from it.

This is THE best Chinese cookbook yet! Mar 26, 1998
I have at least 6 Chinese cookbooks, and this one is absolutely the best ever! So far, each recipe I have tried has been rated between an 8 and a 10 for taste. It doesn't get much better than that. I am just waiting for another book to be written with Leann Chin's additional recipes.

Good for the beginner Oct 31, 2000
By MajorDudette
My first Chinese cookbook for my first foray into Chinese cooking. The recipes here are simple and classic, if rather plain. I like that the ingredients are all easy to find in my area, and that the recipes are very quick! Important for me as a working person who still likes to come home and cook something interesting for dinner. I don't like recipes with ingredient lists that are a foot long. These recipes are short and easy to follow, although a bit cryptic, which led me to make a mistake in one recipe. But I was able to start over on the mistake and the recipe came out well. I would have liked more photos - one per dish would be ideal. I recommend this for the beginning Chinese cook, but not for the beginning cook.
