The Outdoor Table: Recipes for Living and Eating Well (Party Cooking, Outdoor Entertaining)

This is one of the most beautifulbooks I have ever seen; I just LOVE IT. I gave my copy away as a gift when a friend fell in love with it after seeing it on my coffee table. I just got 2 more copies to give as gifts as it is something your friends will treasure. Bonus- they might even invite you over for some outdoor. Enjoy!

The best way to describe this masterpiece is vibrant, fresh and delicious. This book is absolutely delightful and visually stunning. When thumbing through the first few pages, I turned to my husband and exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful I just want to live inside of it!” What a treat it would be to inhabit in such splendor.I’ve loved all of Alanna’s books and recipes so far and cannot wait to see what she comes up with next!

Just like an amazing restaurant, where you can’t make your mind up over a fantastic menu. This book does the same thing, not sure which I want to try first. All the recipes are rather simple to make and healthy using only fresh ingredients, not to mention beautifully photographed. This will make a beautiful gift for lovers of food, and entertaining. Love this book as much as her other one!

The recipes are easy and delicious. The stories behind the recipes are so relaxing you can just picture being with the author and friends. This is such a great holiday book to give!

This book is a work of art! It’s a must buy for anyone! Delicious recipes and beautiful pictures at every turn. It’s well worth the money!!!

Was looking forward to receiving the book. The photos are lovely, but the recipes are basically a riff on a couple of salads, which are not interesting or inspiring. If you cook at all, you’ve made these very basic salads.

Very inspiring photographs (I have little imagination). Hope she gives some stylish ideas about keeping flies off everything!

The book is a stunning addition to any book lovers/foodies collection. The recipes look absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the spinach and dandelion pie on page 113 - I made this for dinner tonight and it was a HIT!I can’t wait to dive into all of the other scrumptious salads, side dishes and main courses. This book provides an excellent excuse to entertain others or indulge yourself!Get a copy for yourself or stock up for the holidays. It makes a perfect hostess gift as well!!
