Summary: Good Food from Australia
Review: (This is an addendum to a previous review) As an American who has spent some time in Australia, I do have one criticism of this book: I found several jabs by the authors at American food/culture (fat Americans eating giant sandwiches, etc.)to be mildly annoying (though not entirely without basis!), considering that this is a book written by Australians and targeted primarily to an American audience. The authenticity and traditional nature of the Australian recipes, however, make up for this minor flaw.

Summary: Love the Aussie Food!
Review: I really love this book! My husband is Australian and I lived there for over a year. We are now in the states and I miss some of the Aussie foods...I asked for this book for Christmas and got it. It is awesome! Has recipes for all the foods that I was missing like meat pies, Lamingtons, Pavlova, and more! It also gives history of the dish and tells alot about Australia as it pertains to whatever you're making. I also like that the recipes are translated into American measuring systems which I always would find difficult when bringing a recipe from Australia because their cups are different and they use the metric system. I'm so excited to have gotten this book and can't wait to cook all my favorites! Being someone who is married to an Aussie as well as lived there for a time, I think this book is awesome and I would suggest it to anyone who wants to cook traditional/modern Australian dishes.

Review: The real deal. Traditional Australian home cooking and pub food, as opposed to modern fusion-confusion cuisine.
