    I am a cook and his instructions are very detailed. Other Haitian cookbooks leave out some small but very important details. This will be a great gift to my children and other friends and family members.

    Add some variety to your diet

    I was given this book for Christmas because I was looking to add some variety to dinners. Not every recipe is for me - I am not a big fan of goat, unless it's to look at how cool they are at a petting zoo - but there are some tasty flavor combinations that I wouldn't normally think of and some recipes that I've included in dinner rotation. This book has added creativity to my meals and I appreciate it.
