This book has excellent fairly mainstream dishes that are popular in Japan, or specifically Tokyo。 A few I could characterize as cult。 I found the pages on Japanese cooks and food culture to be some of the best I have read (admittedly not a huge amount)。 Worth reading and making。

Classic Japanese dishes I grew up in Japan so when I say this cookbook it reminded me of my childhood。 Great selection of everyday foods and wonderful phots of the various dishes。 Now, to try and make them all!

Easy and delicious。 I've found most of the ingredients through our local Asian market and our butcher。 The recipes are simple yet delicious, and I'm getting more adventurous as I cook more dishes。 An excellent buy。 Easy and delicious。 I've found most of the ingredients through our local Asian market and our butcher。 The recipes are simple yet delicious, and I'm getting more adventurous as I cook more dishes。 An excellent buy。 。。。more

The best Japanese cookbook I’ve come across。 A great mix of street food and home cooking。 Beautiful photos, great layout and well written recipes。 Everything I’ve cooked has worked as expected and been delicious。

Chris Williams

Fantastic cookbook with a great mix of traditional and modern recipes, and a really useful appendix of ingredients and breakdowns of iconic foods and quintessential Japanese foodstuffs。 If you like Japanese food this is well worth it。

This recipe book is a collection of authentic, simple and easy to follow Japanese dishes, organised by meal type。 Each recipe comes with a beautiful photo of well presented food, with additional helpful drawings, shop/restaurant photos and explanation around Japanese food culture that provides some context to people new to Japanese cooking。 Personally I will be trying some recipes from this book, especially if I don't want to invest too much time in cooking, but I may use this more as a referenc This recipe book is a collection of authentic, simple and easy to follow Japanese dishes, organised by meal type。 Each recipe comes with a beautiful photo of well presented food, with additional helpful drawings, shop/restaurant photos and explanation around Japanese food culture that provides some context to people new to Japanese cooking。 Personally I will be trying some recipes from this book, especially if I don't want to invest too much time in cooking, but I may use this more as a reference for what Japanese recipes I could cook before finding more complex versions elsewhere。 Additionally, providing a regional context for each of the dishes would have been interesting if included。 。。。more

I really don't see what's "cult" about any of this - these are pretty standard Japanese dishes, and certainly not exclusive to Tokyo。 The recipes are okay-to-good, as are the photos。 None of the recipes are rare or in any way special, but I suppose this is a more convenient collection for those who want a relatively thorough overview of major Japanese dishes。 I really don't see what's "cult" about any of this - these are pretty standard Japanese dishes, and certainly not exclusive to Tokyo。 The recipes are okay-to-good, as are the photos。 None of the recipes are rare or in any way special, but I suppose this is a more convenient collection for those who want a relatively thorough overview of major Japanese dishes。 。。。more

Wow, this book is gorgeous!I'm super impressed with the lovely but simple layout, easy-looking recipes and fun cultural photos thrown in every now and again。 I can't wait to stock up my pantry with some basic ingredients and start cooking my way through this book! The only concern is trying to find some of the ingredients listed so easy access to an Asian supermarket is pretty much a necessity for some of the items listed。Definitely recommended for anyone who wants a simple Japanese cookbook tha Wow, this book is gorgeous!I'm super impressed with the lovely but simple layout, easy-looking recipes and fun cultural photos thrown in every now and again。 I can't wait to stock up my pantry with some basic ingredients and start cooking my way through this book!

This is a really pretty cookbook but the recipes didn't really speak to me。 That doesn't mean it's a bit one, it's just not suitable for me! Not sure what I expected though, because I love Japanese food and I love to cook, but this one just wasn't for me。 :) This is a really pretty cookbook but the recipes didn't really speak to me。 That doesn't mean it's a bit one, it's just not suitable for me!

Finally found a good Japanese cookbook that is about more than just sushi and noodles。 The book itself is gorgeous, drawings and pictures are included on almost every page。 The recipes are easy and clear and I can't wait to try some of them out myself。 Highly recommending if you want a more traditional cookbook that is also easy to follow if you are not from Japan。 Finally found a good Japanese cookbook that is about more than just sushi and noodles。 The book itself is gorgeous, drawings and pictures are included on almost every page。 The recipes are easy and clear and I can't wait to try some of them out myself。 Highly recommending if you want a more traditional cookbook that is also easy to follow if you are not from Japan。 。。。more

Uncomplicated recipes and background on ingredients。 Some of the ingredients may be hard to source like yukari; acceptable substitutions would be great。 I look forward to making many of the meals described starting with the fried lamb and cilantro gyoza。

Qué bien me lo voy a pasar。。。

This book offers a great variety of simple and easy-to-follow recipes for authentic Japanese dishes, including deserts。 I'm a lover of Japan's tasty, varied and often times healthy cuisine。 However, there are no authentic Japanese restaurants around where I live and I most likely won't be travelling to Japan any time soon, so if I want to enjoy Japanese cuisine, the only option I have is to arm myself with my cooking utensils as well as any Japanese groceries I'm able to get my hands on and try This book offers a great variety of simple and easy-to-follow recipes for authentic Japanese dishes, including deserts。 I'm a lover of Japan's tasty, varied and often times healthy cuisine。 However, there are no authentic Japanese restaurants around where I live and I most likely won't be travelling to Japan any time soon, so if I want to enjoy Japanese cuisine, the only option I have is to arm myself with my cooking utensils as well as any Japanese groceries I'm able to get my hands on and try my best to recreate the dishes myself。 Having been somewhat disappointed with the Japanese cookbooks I've previously used, finding "Tokyo Cult Recipes" was an extremely pleasant surprise。Among the many well-known classics such as Curry Udon, Yakisoba, Ramen, Tonkatsu and Gyoza, I also discovered a couple of dishes I hadn't heard of before。 You will also find some quick and simple recipes for your bento box。 The book itself comes with a stylish design and is beautifully illustrated, featuring stunning shots from Tokyo such as its famous Tsukiji Market as well as some interesting additional information on Japanese cuisine。 All of the recipes I've tried so far came out nicely。 Highly recommend。 。。。more
