review 1: it's a nice looking cookbook but if it doesn't inspire or motivate me to cook, it's useless. the author comes from a catering background which really shows in her recipes. that's fine but it's not my style of cooking. she also includes a ton of dairy for a book with the word "paleo" on the cover. however, if you're into presentation or Emily Gilmore is coming over for dinner, this may be the book for you.final note: this book was republished with a new title to cash in on the rising paleo trend.
review 2: Not so impressed so far. Lots of complicated recipes. I mean, not everything has to be "easy paleo," but still. Not sure if it's so great for someone on a budget. For instance, she recommends Lydia's crackers for her dips for hosting a party, but those are exp... moreensive! I guess if you're a "Wine Country chef" that doesn't matter so much. Also, lots of cheese in the recipes. Since when is cheese paleo? Personally, I do eat a bit of dairy, but I find most cheese disgusting, so many recipes were useless to me. Finally, since I've been seeing all this horrifying stuff on my facebook wall about palm oil and deforestation and deaths of chimpanzees and orangutans, I was unimpressed by the author's listing of palm oil as part of the paleo pantry without any mention of sourcing it ethically. less
