An outstanding compilation of Bahamian & Caribbean Cuisine! June 7, 2003
C. Turner (South Florida, USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As an American descendant of Bahamian immigrants, I've always been fascinated by my family's tales of delicious island dishes. Many of those dishes were duplicated here in South Florida when my great-grandparents immigrated to the States, but many others remained a mystery to me. Imagine, then, my delight at finding Lady Igrid Darling's wonderful compilation of Bahamian and Caribbean cuisine. It's a great mix of the sophisticated and the every-day. As I read the recipes to them, my mom, aunts and cousins sat around reminiscing and sharing stories about the various mouth-watering dishes, fresh fruits and vegetables contained therein. This delightful cookbook brought back memories for my family, and will now build memories for me. At their insistence, I've now purchased three additional copies for my mom, sister and others to share. I'm thrilled with my purchase and will use this cookbook for many years to come, both learning about and sharing my culinary heritage with today's generation of Allen descendants.

Lady Igrid Darling, former First Lady of The Bahamas has put together a fascinating and thoughtful cookbook. Even if you live in New York city there will be a Caribbean store somewhere if you want to do some of the more traditional dishes. But there are plenty of recipes with easy-to-obtain ingredients that will bring The Bahamas to your dining room. I love the photographs and wonderful detail that Lady Darling has in this cookbook. Even her helpful tips are unique for olde and new cooks alike. And the recipes range from those prepared for Heads of State to creative everyday meals. This is one of the best cookbooks on the market at such a good price!
