I was a little disappointed with this cookbook, to be honest. Most of the recipes were not for beginner-level cooks, and a lot of the dishes called for specialty ingredients that would need to be ordered online or purchased from a specialty shop. Even though the recipes were mostly based on meals from BotW, the recipes themselves seemed less appealing than the video game versions.

This book was so much better than I expected it to be, with lots of great general cooking tips too. I loved the effort of all of the styled pictures. There's lots of recipes I want to try (which always sounded tasty when playing the game) and I appreciate that they look like actually good recipes and not just basic ones for a quick cookbook.

The recipes and pictures look and sound wonderful, but there’s a lot of ingredients that I can’t find in my area. I think this book would be more suited to someone who lives near an asian market, a Japanese area, or Japan itself

I loved how pretty the book was, with the beautiful photos of the dishes and cosplayers, but most important, loved all the recipes!
