Fast Food - Murdoch Books

cool food, but not cheap food

Advantages: Attractive, nice range of recipes
Disadvantages: Many recipes work out pricey

Cool Food is a very attractive little book, it has a very pretty aqua blue spine, and the front cover has a lovely looking tuna salad on. The book is only small, 18 cm tall by 15 cm wide, but it's a thick book (400 pages in all). I like cooking, and for a while found cook books hard to resist.

Gordon Ramsay's Fast Food

Advantages: Great easy recipes

Just inside the book states that it is divided into short sections with 15 features of fast recipes such as starters, soups, fish, meat, pasta, working lunches, deserts etc and 15 menus for everyday entertaining. It also states that the dishes can all be cooked ...

an activist group. Cast Wilmer Valderrama (That 70's Show) - Raul Catalina Sandino Moreno - Sylvia Ana Claudia Talancón - Coco Bobby Cannavale (The Bone Collector) - Mike Greg Kinnear (Stuck On You) - don Anderson Kris Kristofferson (Blade) - Rudy Martin Ashley Johnson (What Women Want) - Amber Patricia Arquette (Medium) - Cindy Ethan Hawk (Training Day) - Pete Bruce Willis (Lucky Number Slevin) - Harry Avril Lavigne - Alice Lou Taylor Pucci - Paco My Experience I have heard an awful lot about Eric Schlosser's book, Fast Food Nation, but haven't actually gotten around to reading it yet, I believe the book is more of a documentary than a novel. The film is shot ad acted in a way to make it look more gritty and real and take away the Hollywood sheen. I was actually quite impressed by the acting it did feel like i was watching ...
