 Repeat recipes February 29, 2008

The recipes are really good, the layout of the book is easy to follow and there are tons of great photos of the dishes and ingredients. BUT...the recipes are exactly the same as the book I already own called 'Vietnamese Food & Cooking' by the same author. I wish I had known this before ordering the book (which I am now returning). That's why I only give three stars.
The Vietnamese cookbook has more background information in the front section, including many pages describing ingredients (with photos) and some tips on preparation. This Cambodian version has much less. There are two things that are included in the Cambodian cookbook that are not in the Vietnamese one: how to prepare bottled prahok for use in cooking and a recipe for Tuk Trey sauce. I just don't want other people to be disappointed for the same reasons (especially when I was looking forward to this "new" book).
 Fabulous, but unnecessary if you own Food & Cooking of Vietnam & Cambodia April 9, 2008

I already have their first book: Food & Cooking of Vietnam & Cambodia, which I love!, so when I heard there was a new one of straight up Cambodian dishes, I was thrilled to add it to my collection. To my disappointment, though, it is exactly the same book, just minus the Vietnamese portion. Yep, very same photos and exactly the same recipes. Can't believe they made money off o' me all over again, and for the very same product! I'm a SUCKA! :)
