Summary: JUST LIKE MOM
Review: AS A GREEK AMERICAN, I GREW UP WITH TRADITIONAL GREEK MEALS. VEFA'S COOKBOOKS ARE LIKE MY MOTHER OR GRANDMOTHER SITTING NEXT TO ME GIVING ME THE RECIPES. EVERY SINGLE RECIPE IS EXPLAINED IN SUCH A MATTER THAT IT IS VERY HARD TO MAKE A MISTAKE. IF YOU'RE GOING TO BUY ONE COOKBOOK, MAKE IT ONE OF VEFA'S.

Summary: vefa's cookbooks
Review: I am a Greek who recently moved to the US, and Vefa's books show the very best of today's Grrek cuisine. My mother in Greece has all her books, they're just the most authentic ones on the market. I hope the rest of them become available soon. Anna Tsirka, MD

Summary: Great, but doesn't have a recipe for baklava.
Review: I got this cookbook for Christmas, and I'm used to French cooking. This is a great cookbook, but it doesn't have a recipe for baklava. Some things are sort of farfetched for Americans to eat, but this is a very easy-to-follow cookbook with illustrations and authentic Greek recipes!

Summary: This is *real* Greek food
Review: I'm a Greek born and bred, and a keen foodie. Now I live in London, and I always recommend this book to my English friends. Let me tell you, not only do these recipes represent authentic Greek food, but they work, too! Vefa has a degree in chemistry and that comes across in her methodical instructions. The photos are also quite appetising! Enjoy.

Summary: As a Greek American, this book is authentic.
Review: Vefa is the Maria Callas of Greek food. I use her recipes during Greek holidays like Easter and Christmas. Try her Pastichio and Moussaka recipes. She gives simple explanations to difficult recipes and they come out delicious.
