Summary: Good food & a Good Sense of Humor
Review: His successful television show on PBS was just a sampling of his gift for food prepreation & for making people laugh, with fans internationally, this book is a perfect example of what DELICIOUS is! If the recipes are followed correctly, the result is outstanding, if the recipes are not followed correctly, then it is not the fault of Mr. Wilson :-)

Summary: Excellent, I garontee!!
Review: This book a primer on New Orleans cuisine ala Justin Wilson. I remember his cooking show and always got a kick out of how he would pour a little wine in his pots and drink the rest. You could see that this man enjoyed food, and this translates into his book. I credit Mr. Wilson with teaching me how to make a decent roux because before I read his recipe, I always used butter or vegetable oil. Hey, I'm from Brooklyn, what did I know from a roux? The olive oil made a huge difference in my gumbo. I was even inspired to try jambalaya -- it was yummy!!On a past trip to New Orleans, I purchased one of the Junior League Cookbooks which has an abundance of recipes and tips. However, the other book relies on a lot of processed and prepared ingredients. Those recipes are also a lot fussier. I prefer Wilson's cookbook for its simplicity. He also includes plenty of local color and anecdotes.

Summary: okay
Review: This book is okay. I got a copy of it a few years ago when a friend was moving and gave it away. The recipes are okay, but nothing to rave about. Justin Wilson loves to include his 'humorous' stories and jokes along with the recipes. They mainly should be considered a distraction.
