For years, I've been watching Doctor Who hoping to see the TARDIS kitchen, if only to confirm that the TARDIS galley cook is science-nerd chef Alton Brown. Meanwhile, I've got the cookbook, an Xmas present from my sister (who, serendipitously, received the same present from me). There are full color photographs for almost every recipe (though I could have done with a fork or teacup in the background for scale in some of them). Some recipes are straight forward (Pasta Bow Tie Salad, Banana Party Pops) and others are more labor-intensive (the TARDIS and Pandorica cakes). Some are instantly appealing (A Pizza Cassandra, Fish Fingers & Custard, and Jammy Dodgers), but not everyone will be tempted to tuck into an “Inside a Dalek” Salad. The cookbook also features photographs from the series. It's a delightful book for fans and adventurous cooks.
