St. John Style

Summary: Finally A Superb Local Recipe Book
Review: Finally a great recipe book dedicated to the tastes of St John USVI. Normally the Carib recipe books have a drip and drabble from all of the islands. This wonderful book lends itself only to the recipes of St John. All directions are easy to read and easy to duplicate for the novice to the gourmet cook.

Nice thing about this book is that our daughter is marrying there soon and now we know what to get for all of our good friends to take home as a remembrance of the wedding and a remembrance of a lot of paradise.

Summary: Yes, it is difficult to shop for ingredients in the islands!
Review: Having lived in the islands 20 years myself, I certainly understand five-stop shopping. The Caribbean recipes in this books are fresh, exuberant and bursting with exotic island flavor. If you like this book, you'll really love Angela Spenceley's brand new book "A Taste of the Caribbean" filled with hundreds of traditional recipes and the new, exciting Caribbean cuisine. A must for any good cookbook library.
