Best Cookbook Dec 26, 2007
By Gramma Sally Eating at the Ovens of Brittany was a real treat when I was in graduate school at UW-Madison. I've used this cookbook for about 20 years and it's still my favorite. The Triple Chip Cookies have become my signature recipe and I'm in trouble with my friends if I don't bring them to a gathering. The blueberry muffins are my all time favorites; hearty bread muffins, not sweet and cake-like. I just ordered my second copy of the cookbook. I wore the first one out!

Great cookbook, excellent recipes, a couple of glaring oversights. Nov 07, 2010
By Michael P. Simon

This will be short and sweet. The recipes in this book make some great food, but I bought the book for one recipe that didn't appear: The Ovens of Brittany's famous Morning Buns. These were some of the most amazing pastries I've ever had and nothing's come close until Starbucks recently released a near copy. Still, nothing beats the freshness of having them warm on a Saturday morning on State street. A few thousand miles away, I was hoping to relive some of that glory, but was disappointed with such an obvious omission. The croissants are missing as well.
Still, the book is full of fabulous tasting food. Get it if you loved the Ovens other stuff as much as I loved the pastries.

A Keeper Cookbook Jun 14, 2008
By Mengel This cookbook is just excellent! I've been asked to share the recipe every time I take a food from this cookbook to a social gathering. I've focused largely on the soup and salad recipes because that's what I like, and all of them have given me gourmet quality flavorful foods using interesting herbs and spices that are easy to find. The Chicken Almond Salad is the best and the Potato Chowder, Tomato Dill Soup and Spanish Country Soup are my favorites soups. I will say that if you don't want to spend time in the kitchen, this cookbook may not be for you because many of the recipes are a little labor intensive. Also, as you might expect with a restaurant cookbook, many of the recipes are not compatible with a fat-restricted diet (some can easily be modified however). That being said, I would highly recommend this cookbook for its recipes that consistently turn out products that taste absolutely wonderful.
