A mustin every food enthusiast's kitchen. The recipes are simple & from a multicultural & multisocial part of the world. Serving a combination of dishes from the different cultures brings harmony to the table, to the eys & to the tastebuds. Very informative & easy to follow recipes.

Practical elegance - By: Benny Scholes, 26 Jul 2008 
Arto der Harotounian's book is far more than a collection of recipes - it is an introduction to the culture of the Middle East.
The recipes themselves - backed up with serving suggestions, proverbs, anecdotes & reminiscences - sound mouth-watering & are easy to follow.
The author's obvious love of his subject makes this book a delight.
