Great crepes cookbook
Of the three crepes cookbooks I own, this is my favorite for several reasons. The measurements are given both metric and U.S., so no conversions needed. Lots of beautiful illustrations. The only one of my three books that has a recipe for real Breton buckwheat crepes. The majority of the filling recipes have reasonable lists of ingredients with the exception of Moo Shu Pork, Beef Stroganoff, and a very few others, and I haven’t found any recipes that would call for hard to find ingredients.

Crepes Not Just For Special Occasions
I have been looking for a good but simple book on crepes and this book is more than I could have wished for. You have simple step by step recipes for basic as well as rice flour crepes. The pictures are very clear on the different ways to fold your crepes and some basic filling to use. If you are a beginner or a skilled baker you will find this book invaluable. I didn't know that using a different type of grater would make that much of a difference. I like to have a dictionary handy when reading so when you come across a word in cooking that you don't know, stop, look it up and you will find understanding what the person is talking about makes so much more enjoyable. This book was listed as used but it was in pristine condition and the price was a steal. I have been very happy with all used books I have purchased. Because I am using them in the kitchen I see no point in buying a new edition unless there are no used editions.

Great Chicken pot pie Crepes Love it
Has very nice recipes and crepes are easy to make. I like making them. I would advise to buy some deli type paper to separate the crepes. I freeze them. they freeze well. If you like crepes. You will like the recipes.

Beautiful Crepe Cookbook!
The presentation of this book is beautiful—Glossy pages and amazing photos—and the recipes look delicious! I ordered several crepe cookbooks for my 15 year old daughter and the recipes were a little too complex. As much as I liked this book It just wasn’t a good fit for my daughter. However, I would recommend it for others who are looking for a quality cookbook with delicious, unique recipes!

This book could easily become your crepe-making bible
Like the author, I too went to Culinary Arts school, but I attended long before chefs were the rock stars they now are (especially on TV). At this stage in my life, I tend to avoid recipes with more than 10 ingredients. I don't like having to buy specific/expensive ingredients that I may never use again. There are plenty of great recipes included that are ideal for me, as well as some for more ambitious types. The best part of the book, of course, is the crepe lessons! All recipes are very well-written with detailed step-by-step instructions. Also included are several different recipes for crepes using different flours (gluten free, too). One recipe teaches how to make the most authentic French ones using Buckwheat (Amazon sells good quality Buckwheat.) So far in a week and a half I have made three types of crepes, three desserts, and two entrees. All have turned out wonderfully! I HIGHLY recommend this book for both the novice and expert cook. You won't be bored easily with this cookbook, I promise! All in all, this book is a keeper and I can see myself referring to it frequently, even as the years go by.

This one is a winner!
What a super book!! My wife is from Romania and her entire life she grew up making and eating crepes, her favorite is still filled with Nutella. We make crepes here quite often, and you can make 25 crepes from 6 eggs. They are easy to make, and economical to boot. So this book has introduced me to buckwheat crepes, rice flour crepes and more. From savory to sweet, this book is loaded with some really great recipes. Easy to read and the food is fun to make. Why spend all those $$ at the now-popular creperies, make them at home and have fun with the whole family. If you can find this book you will enjoy it!

Okay.....
There are a few recipes that sound good, but the majority are simply pushing credibility with the unlikely combination of ingredients. Definitely most of them I will never try. But my main complaint, and I know this has nothing to do with the author, is the SMALL page numbers. Extremey difficult to read and almost requires a magnifying glass. Do those who design and layout books realize that not everyone has perfect vision? I will probably try a few of the recipes but most likely will pass this book along to someone else.

As the title says book is cool but the way it was shipped to me was really bad - it came all over US in single layered plastic bag with holes - no padding or extra cover on the book to protect it so when it arrived the book was dirty and looked like that it was used before. I had it as a present for my friend, so I couldn't return it as there was not enough time to get replacement or similar book. The book was sold by Your Online Bookstore, I never had problems with books delivered directly by Amazon.

I really like this cookbook. It may be a tad more expensive than others but you get what you pay for. The recipes are pretty gourmet, just the way I like them. 5 stars!
