A nice enough collection of recipes, with little preamble. Like Keep It Simple though, time hasn't been kind to it. Many books now do British food in a far more inspiring manner; this is a collection of recipes typical of many gastropubs (I hate that word).

An excellent introduction to good modern British home cooking in the mid 90s. I've just finished reading all the descriptions and really enjoy how the author describes her recipes and offers tidbits about their history.

Excellent book. Good for well thought out and tested classic dishes.

The author is lovely too - she gave me a lift back from a Slow Food event once.
