  • Not bad

    It's alright but it's not right by any means I've only tried one thing out of it so far, yet I have had a good flick through it and I've yet to see any mention of MSG which is essentially in every Chinese home kitchen and take out but saying this it's clear and to the point but I wouldn't class it as proper takeout it's a good starting point though and I'm sure if you know anything about cooking you'd figure out the rest/how to make it 95% like a good takeout

  • Great recipes for chinese takeaway meals

    I love Chinese takeaway takeaway meals and this book has a great and varied selection. Some of the ingredients are not easily available locally but found a good company online where I could order items that I needed. Have made the beef, green pepper and black bean sauce and planning to cook more this week,

  • Great photos, well presented

    I haven't tried the recipes yet but the photos make the food look appetising and inviting. It's clearly written by someone who has a lot of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm for the food he is cooking. Will try it out soon! It does seem quite pricey but producing work of this quality is expensive.
