The Harry's Bar Cookbook

So much more than just a recipe book!
This is more an experience. Interesting narrative, seductive pictures, amazing recipes (some rather challenging but delicious however they come out). And who could not enjoy recipes for sandwiches with recommended wines! Not for those on diets, but an altogether pleasurable experience. Buon appetito!

I loved this book
I'm a great fan of Harry's Bar, bought this book so that I could recreate some of my favourite recipes but really enjoyed reading the stories of the early days. The love of good food comes through the pages.

Interesting Book - not just recipes!
Bought this for my Daughter who absolutely loves it. We are reaping the rewards too as she has cooked some lovely dishes from the recipes within.

very comprehensive
Excellent recipes but a very large book for the cookery shelf and heavy. There is a lot of reading matter, as opposed to recipes themselves, about Venice, Harry's Bar, Italy etc which is very entertaining. Unfortunately the section on meat recipes mostly covers veal which is not easy to obtain in the UK any more. However, I would recommend it to anyone interested in individual and tasty recipes which cover things like home-made pasta. bread, unusual sauces etc. not usually included in run-of-the-mill cookery books.

Even if you have never been to Venice…
I have such wonderful memories of Venice and especially Harry’s Bar…so this book is more than a cookbook…it’s one of my kitchen treasures…just reading thru the book is enjoyable in itself but the recipes are incredibly easy to use and evoke so many treasured memories of those lazy Venetian days including a saunter into Harry’s for… just anything you order will be memorable…one of any pasta dishes on offer…the only Croque Monsieur you’ll ever want to eat again…anything “in saor”…fabulously simple vegetable courses…and it would be impossible to choose a favorite dessert but it would have to be the lemon meringue cake or the chocolate mousse or the poached pears or the crepes flambé…and I could never leave without Harry’s famous Bellini…the book itself is a masterful cookbook with fabulous photography, text I have read over and over through the years, and Harry’s enduring but simple recipes any cook can prepare with impressive results…if I could only have one cookbook, it would be this one!

On peut s'en passer
Je suis déçue par ce livre. Les photos n'ont pas grand intérêt et les recettes rien d'extraordinaire. Un achat inutile.

A great Italian Cookbook!
One of the best Italian cookbooks I have seen. The recipe's are simple and easy and fantastic. After reading it I visitedHarry's Bar in Venice since I was so impressed with the recipes. The only problem, like most cookbooks, is getting the samequality ingredients locally. Great photos and you get hungrier and hungrier page by page.
