Such a fantastic cookbook!
I now have over a dozen of Ramsay’s cookbooks and this one is on par with the rest of them - excellent recipes that are easy to follow. Beautiful color pictures and recipes printed in a useful way to utilize in a kitchen. Like other Ramsay books, they are very precise and detailed while not being overbearing. The recipes all work very well and range from extremely simple to sophisticated.I recently ate at Gordon Ramsay Steak in Vegas and had the amazing, classic Sticky Toffee Pudding. I came home and cracked open each of his books and finally found it in this book. It turned out perfectly and very close, if not exactly to the restaurant dish.I highly recommend branching out and trying these dishes - each one is very much worth it. The recipes are in metric, which I much prefer to imperial. Grams are more precise and easier to navigate with just a scale. Some ingredients are more in common in the UK, but with a little research you can usually create the ingredients you need with ease. Something like Creme Fraiche can be hard to find in a US grocery store but can be recreated with buttermilk’s and heavy cream. Good luck!

Highly useful cookbook.
Prospective purchases might find the following interesting: 1) the recipes are in weights except for amounts in teaspoons 2) the recipes are flavorful and clear with an accompanying picture of the finished dish 3) sometimes ingredients are listed with the British term (like caster sugar) but they are easy to look up on the internet, 4) the recipes cover breakfast, lunch, dinner, cocktails and a few desserts and 5) sometimes but not often he lists an ingredient without giving a substitute which may be difficult to find in your grocery store such as comté cheese.I like the addition of a short paragraph before each recipe which are like a private conversation with the chef. They contain useful tips, encouragement to try something new and serving suggestions.I have cooked ten dishes so far from this cookbook and all are worthy of serving guests. His chapters include Brunch, Lunch, Food for Sharing, The Big Weekend, In Between Meals, Dinner with Friends And Midweek Suppers.

Great Book, but arrived damged.
Really enjoy this one! Simple recipes 99% of the time. Love that it has photos for every recipe. Giving 4 stars because it arrived damaged on the corner.

Gift for wife
Bought for my wife because she doesn’t know how to cook. She doesn’t use it but looks good on the shelf.

Easy reading, well done. But the proof is in the pudding and once I tried a few of the examples in the book I will be able provide a better opinion.

I love this book
I loved a lot of recipes, and the overall format and photos. There is some overlap of a few, especially breakfast recipes with other books
