Food 2.0: Secrets from the Chef Who Fed Google

Cute book. The book is half food information, and half recipes. I think it would have worked better if the information was mixed in with the recipes. But instead, we get the information first. There wasn't as much discussion about being a chef at google as I would have liked. There are definitely some handy tips and tricks for the lazy cook.

This is an aesthetically pleasing book more than an informative one. There are times when you want the author to say more, but you know it would destroy the “beauty of the page”.

Buy this as a cookbook, not for an information source. There are better books out there that approach the whole “organic, raw” mentality. But if you're looking for some funky recipes, and maybe a good coffee table book, this would be a good choice!
