I took a cooking class from the author, Rick Moonen, and I learned a lot and got to sample delicious food he prepared. Did you see him on Oprah a couple of weeks ago? He's the head chef at Rick Moonen's RM Seafood at Mandalay Bay in Vegas.

I'm glad to have this cookbook as a resource for cooking fish. I've just had it a couple of days but so far we've tried the shrimp fritters with asian dipping sauce (killer) and the spicy ginger-lime ceviche (according to DH the best ceviche he's More...

This was the first Gourmet Cookbook of the month selection, and I bought it sight unseen (that is not entirely true--they had two videos of the author on their web site)--and it is my current favorite fish cookbook--has all three of my favorite ways to do mussels to name one reason

This is one of my favorite cookbooks. It's really informative and easy. Also, the New England Clam Chowder recipe is one of my family's favorites.

Inspires confidence in being able to cook all kinds of fish and seafood. Thourough photos of everything from choosing fresh fish, cleaning cooking and sauces and presentation. Excellent book.

The only thing that kept this from a perfect rating was the large number of shrimp recipes that my allergic self can't make. The recipes that I've tried so far were easy, delicious and worked out just like they said they would. Plus there are pages of info about fish, many of which I hadn't heard of, and photos to help one scale a fish, butterfly a shrimp etc.
