review 1: I watched Christine's mesmerizing performance on that season of MasterChef. It was absolutely compelling to watch her competing against other amateur chefs with complex dishes and picture perfect presentations -- the amazing thing is that she is blind. And she was completely gracious during the entire competition.This cookbook features foods from both of her culinary heritages -- Vietnamese / Asian -- along with Southern / Texas favorites. It's a lot of fun with some great pictures.
review 2: I watched Christine Ha compete in last season's reality TV show/cooking competition MasterChef and I was really happy when she won. Christine Ha is legally blind, so the fact that she can cook so incredibly well is inspiring. This cookbook was a pleasure to read because
... more it's not just recipes. She talks about her late mom's cooking and gives insight and tips on becoming more skilled in the kitchen. I usually do not purchase cookbooks, rather I just borrow them from the library and photocopy the few recipes I am interested in, but I want to add this one to my personal collection. I am looking forward to trying some of her recipes on my own. less

This is the cookbook from the winner of season 3 of MasterChef. I thought it was average.

Definitely a good book to have around - even if you don't watch the show.

I really enjoyed the narrative but the recipes were a bit simple.
