 Fine Haitain Cuisine Review January 11, 2007
Altagrace Simon (Springvalley, NY)
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
When I received and read this book, I was jumping for joy. I feel this book is a great representation of haitian cuisine. I am also Haitian and feel that Mona Menager did a great job! She was not selfish and revealed recipes that are usually discussed among family members. I was very surprised and wanted to personally thank her for stepping up to the plate.
This books gives clear and detailed explanations on how to prepare different dishes. I have other haitian cookbooks but this book is top of the line. I give this book a perfect 10!
Mona, if you are reading this review. I want to personally thank you for taking the time and energy to creating a work of art. I hope you will continue your research in Haitian cuisine and perhaps creating other cookbooks entitled "Fine Haitian Cuisine Part II and III." I will be the first to buy them.
LOVE IT January 31, 2008

I love this book so much, that I bought one for my sister and one for my best friend. I though I knew how to cook haitian food but I was wrong. My first dish was the rice and beans and it was wonderful. I tasted just like the ones I used to have back home. The only haitian cookbook you need.
 too expensive September 27, 2007

THIS BOOK IS BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED BUT THE EXACT SAME RECIPES CAN BE FOUND IN A TASTE OF HAITI FOR A FRACTION OF THE COST.

I am in love with this book. I am haitian (3rd generation) raised by my grandma. She has since moved to another country. So that wisdom that i used to have around me all the time is not so close. This book could never replace my grandma but its as if my grandma wrote it. Thank you to the author. For bringing wisdom back home
nice book but to pricey December 14, 2007

this is book was a fine example for haitian cooking there were pictures of the food being presented for some of the meals being prepared so that you can get a hint on how the dish should look like.its in detail about whats to be done next. the only thing i didnt like about it was the price i gotta admit the price is above the average cookbook.but in the end its well worth the dollars spent.
