Filipino Homestyle Dishes: Delicious Meals in Minutes [Filipino Cookbook, Over 60 Recipes] (Learn To Cook Series) Spiral-bound – December 15, 2003

There are so many different versions of filipino dishes, but this cookbook is really great for the basics. If you haven't learned from your grandma yet, the recipes in here will definitely hold you over until you get a chance to visit her. Or if you're not filipino and you know filipino food is delicious, you should totally get this and impress all your friends. The instructions are incredibly easy to follow and all the recipes have pictures (I hate cookbooks without pictures). There's also some brief history of filipino cuisine, which I found really interesting.

This is a perfect cookbook that beautifully brings out the beauty and delicious flavors of Filipino cuisine.I'm actually happy that it doesn't have all the "exotic" stuff such as dinuguan, goat meat stew, paksiw etc.It's presented in a modern, slightly Americanized way which I think is proper for filipinos and non filipinos alike.I love the pictures! Very beautifully done.

All recipes are easy to cook and authentic. Pictures of dishes are great. I have a Filipino friend and she says that this one is the best out there for homestyle Filipino dishes. I had loaned my first book to a "friend" because she was always raving about the recipes and she never returned it. I had to replace it and was glad to find that Amazon carried it.

This is a nice and quick read on filipino food. It is by far my favorite. I will caution that some ingredients are difficult to find, so substituting might be necessary at times.

I liked this book so much, I gifted another to my sister. Pictures for each recipe and the method is simple and easy to follow. The spiral-bound book makes it even easier to lay it flat while cooking. More books, please, Ms. Chikiamco!

I attend a Filipino church, and have tasted many Filipino dishes. This cookbook faithfully reproduces the food I have come to love. The recipes are easy to follow and if you so desire can be tweaked for a personal taste preference. I highly recommend it!

The book was lost in transit during a move after I purchased it but I wasn't terribly disappointed. Could not quite picture the recipes materializing on my dinner table. I love Filipino food so maybe it was just me.

ALL THE FAVORITE FILIPINO DISHES ARE IN THIS BOOK! WIFE ( WHO IS FILIPINA ) LOVES THE BOOK!IF YOU LIKE FILIPINO FOOD YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS COOKBOOK!
