Fine Haitian Cuisine July 8, 2009
Carla F. Lamothe (Covington, GA)
This book has most of teh great Haitian recipes with pictures. If someone does not know how to cook a recipe, at least they can see what it is supposed to look like.
That helps.
I would reccomend it.

How you like me now!!! May 6, 2009

I was born in Haiti, but rasied in the US. I married a true born and raised Haitian from Port au Prince. On that note, its truly a big task trying to delight my husband's taste buds.
After trying two other haitian book (Mountain Maid & Taste of Haiti), I find this book to be the best so far. The first dish that I'd served to my husband was "Poisson Gwo Sel",it tasted better then his mother's!:) To add more icing to the cake, he'd asked for seconds!!!!
Pros: Clear/clean instructions, color pictures, a different outlook of preparing/cooking and unfamiliar/different recipes
Cons: Book is heavy, the size and pages tear out easly
Suggests: Divide the book in two or smaller print,soft cover instead of hard, pictures of individual dish, laminate pages, spiral binding and option of book on video.
I highly reconmend the this book. Do not let the cost of the book be your deciding factor. By making this minor investment,it you come back to you in 100 folds. You will not be disappointed.
 Excellent regardless of price March 5, 2009

I have heard that some people may think that $49 dollars is too high, but I've paid higher prices for college textbooks that I did not appreciate as much.
I've purchased all three of the Haitian cookbooks that are currently on the market and I love having all three. My mom is an excellent Haitian cook, but I have only recently began my journey at learning the unique style of Haitian cooking. I like to compare some of the technique I've recently learned from my mom, to those included in the book. Also my mom doesn't cook anywhere close to as many recipes as those include in the book. I love my mom's Soup Joumou, but I like that the book has other options.
It's worth the money- especially since it is so unique.
LOVE IT January 31, 2008

I love this book so much, that I bought one for my sister and one for my best friend. I though I knew how to cook haitian food but I was wrong. My first dish was the rice and beans and it was wonderful. I tasted just like the ones I used to have back home. The only haitian cookbook you need.
nice book but to pricey December 14, 2007

this is book was a fine example for haitian cooking there were pictures of the food being presented for some of the meals being prepared so that you can get a hint on how the dish should look like.its in detail about whats to be done next. the only thing i didnt like about it was the price i gotta admit the price is above the average cookbook.but in the end its well worth the dollars spent.
