Pretty pictures but the recipes don't work! - H. Chou -
I purchased this book on amazon.co.uk (I live in UK) and it only has 6 reviews - most of which are good reviews!
In middle of attempting to make my 1st ever macarons, I found my batter was too runny and started googling what went wrong and saw Catherine Moore's review here on the US Amazon!

If I had seen her review, I'd have never purchased this book!

She's right, the recipies just don't work!

The book is really pretty & all but it's not the book u'd want to get if u want to make proper macarons!

(I added more ground almond & icing sugar to the batter and eventually made it firm enough to make some sort of shape - it tasted nice but wonky shapes and lots of cracks!)

The Ultimate Bar Book: The Comprehensive Guide to Over 1,000 Cocktails

Product Details

Ultimate Bar Book is the first and only guide to classic and new drink recipes. Loaded with essential-to-know topics such as barware, tools, and mixing tips, this book has it all. As a mistress of mixology, the author has the classics down to a T -- the Martini, the Bloody Mary, plus the many variations (the Dirty Martini, the Virgin Mary). And then there are all the creative new elixirs the author brings to the table, like the Tasmanian Twister Cocktail or the Citron Sparkler. Illustrations show precisely what type of glass should be used for each drink. With dozens of recipes for garnishes, rims, infusions, and syrups; punches, gelatin shooters, hot drinks, and non-alcoholic beverages; and -- let's not forget -- an essential selection of hangover remedies, Ultimate Bar Book is nothing short of top-shelf.

Great Buy! - Kioku Tidwell - las vegas, NV
to have been a used book it barley looked used at all. There was only one little bend on the corner and that could be on any book in any new book store. I was extremly pleased with my purchase. It was shipped prompty as well. I liked that.
