Gotta Love Gus the Dog, He is so Wise - Captain Katie - Long Beach, CA and the Sunny Caribbean
I've had this book for years and I go to it about once a month or so for an idea. I particularly like the comments by Gus the Dog. He is so right when he says that "People become confused when they are all cooking together and having a good time." Gus thinks it's better to stand by the door and watch, because they will feed you sooner or later. That's good advice for all you arm chair chefs.

This book is crammed full of delicious recipes from around the world and down the street. The neighborhood, Europe, Asia and more, all between the pages of one cookbook, can't ask for more than that. But you get more here, because you get Jeff Smiths delicious sense of humor and his doggone good writing. This is so much more than a cookbook, it's good old fashioned entertainment as well. It's a must for any chef.
