review 1: Fun idea for a cookbook. Flay goes across the country looking for cooks who specialize in local favorite foods, and challenges them to see if he can make it better than the local expert. He then includes both his recipe and the local expert's recipe for the same dish. Good variety of recipes. If you know a guy who likes the show, this would be a good gift. It's pretty masculine, as cookbooks go.Great if you're looking for authentic, regional recipes for local favorite comfort food. NOT so good if you're looking for low-calorie meals or desserts!
review 2: Ok I did like that the author/chef's goal for this book seemed to be highlighting the food and work of other great chefs across America and not for his own benefit. He seems to be a nice personable guy who see
... morems embarrassed when his food beats the challengers in the Throwdown, even though frankly, most of his combinations are better. Most of the recipes I wanted to try were desserts like the Caramel Apple Cheesecake, or Gingerbread Cupcakes with Caramelized Mango Buttercream, but then there were great meal recipes like the traditional Muffuletta, World's Greatest Chicken Pot Pie, and the Gulf Shrimp and Grits. less
