Product Description
For novices and gourmets alike, this unique cookbook offers a tantalizing variety of dishes from the shores of the Danube River. Its recipes bring Old World flavor directly into today's kitchen with such cherished favorites as "Weiner Schnitzel," "House Knedliky" (Bread Dumplings), "Hungarian Goulash," "Shrimp Sophya," and "Mititei" (Romanian Sausage). Along with a special chapter, "Christmas Along the Danube," which covers each country's holiday specialties, this cookbook also includes black and white photographs of menus, shots of regional interest, and maps and illustrations throughout. A new appendix provides information on classic Danubian wines--the perfect complement to any dish from central and southeastern Europe. Complete with b/w photos.

 Not very useful February 22, 2007
T. Todorovac (USA)
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
This book fell apart as soon as I opened it. The glue wasn't strong enough to keep the pages together, and they fell right out of the book. And that was just a foretaste of the fact that the recipes were not going to be very useful at all. The problem is that it is very poorly organized...there is a heavy concentration on the countries involved instead of the dishes I was interested in trying. The author couldn't decide whether it was a cookbook or a historic and geographic tour guide. She needed to make up her mind, but didn't.

An excellent book that takes you along the Danube, stopping to
eat at every country and sample a little of their cuisine. The recipes are a great collection of comfort food that all are
sure to enjoy.
Good ethnic cooking from the old country and then some! October 25, 2007

I liked this book very much because of the diversity of countries where the Danube flows. How often I'll use it I'm not sure, but its nice to have the resources of the different cuisines. I hope they are as authentic as they seem to be. :)
