Savoring San Francisco: Recipes from the City's Neighborhood Restaurants

Rating:
Summary: Okay
Review: I would have prefered a few more recipes for the staples such as chicken, beef etc. Most of the recipes seemed a little esoteric to me and unlikely to be included in my every day cooking. Perhaps thats the intention of the book but I think they could have found a better balance.

Summary: More than just a cookbook
Review: This book is fabulous. Even for people who don't cook, the book is a great restaurant guide to San Francisco. I love the historical backgrounds of the neighborhoods. Very well written, with a sense of style, opinion, and irreverence. Very SF! I also find the layout, type treatments, and color very pleasing and easy to navigate. The beautiful black & white photographs give a great sense of the neighborhoods without being clichéd.
