Summary: Never fail, quick Chinese recipes - it's a winner
Comment: Kylie is awesome! Her simple, easy to read instructions truly never fail. I am working my way through the book and so far have made about 15 of the mainly meat, entrees. Every one has been delicious and relatively quick to prepare. I have really enjoyed this book and look forward to making more.

Summary: It is pretty, but is it useful?
Comment: The reviewers are right, it is a beautiful cook book. I checked this book out from the local library and have tried to make 2 egg recipes. Neither have been successful. Now, no I am not Chinese or Asian. I have made many other Asian & Chinese dishes. This book, to me, is a coffee table cookbook. It is too large to work with and around on a counter. There used to be a blogger that reviewed cookbooks to see if the recipes were actually useful. [...]. Thanks.

Summary: Quick, easy, and delicious!
Comment: I use this book at least twice a week because every dish has been a hit with the family and the dishes are so easy to prepare and healthy too. Even when I don't have all the ingredients for a recipe and I need to improvise, the dishes always turn out tasty anyway. Every recipe comes with a very appetizing picture of the finished product and several, very helpful, how-to photos. She also gives detailed descriptions of unfamiliar ingredients and photos of brands she uses. This a great beginner cookbook!

Summary: great book
Comment: I love this book! Kylie Kwong has put some fantastic fresh ideas forward that really liven up any meal. It's a great book for the beginning cook as well as the experienced, not everything is traditional and both will find something that is surprising and inspiring. I have to say that I adore the vegetable section in this book, it's fantastic.

Summary: Simply delicious ..
Comment: What more could an aspiring cook of Chinese food desire? This is a beautiful book, complete with glorious photographs, easy to follow recipes and includes a menu planner.

Variety is the essence of Chinese cuisine. Fortunately variety need not mean complexity. Every recipe we've cooked from this book has been a success, and the tips and presentation are superb.

All of Ms Kwong's books are superb, but if you have to choose just one, then this would be my choice.
