Great book, speedy service
The book took around 2 weeks to get from the U.K to Australia. I loved the book, the recipes are fantastic and it such a unique concept regarding the street food around the world. Definitely worth the money!

Very colourful and informative, bit complex though
I am in a quest to do my own street food business so I am soaking up as much information as possible. This book inspires, seems to be great but of course there's a few downsides...- The book is not broken down into regions, instead recipes are all over the place. The book is broken into sweet & savoury parts, which is the only level of organization in the book.- The recipes are a bit of a mix between metric and imperial measurements, so you will have to do some conversion stuff depending on the region you live in.- Some of these recipes are VERY complex... I am not kidding...- South African Chicken Heads & Feet 'Walkie Talkies' sound absolutely revolting... Really? Well, I suppose this is a matter of taste, but I could do without a cookbook that has a recipe for chicken heads... ShudderThen the upsides! And there are loads!- Very colourful & informative, got the ol' salivation glands working away with some of the recipes.- If you know how to cook, then this book is fab for you! If you don't know how to cook, get some lessons (YouTube is a good place to start) but if you can master some of these dishes, you will definitely gain some mates, and perhaps a few pounds as well (weight wise, money too if you sell)- Makes you get a travel bug! Mouth-traveling to taste some of these dishes... I am keen to open my mind up to even more experiences and this book is inspiring to do just that (when I am in my 60's lol, done enough over the mis-spent youth)- Cultures & educates you in different ethnic cuisines.- Lots of different stuff to make, 90% sound delicious! 10% of the dishes sound naff..So for a good-sized book that is packed with delicious recipes (and some naff ones) this book is great. You get 220ish pages of recipes, a glossary, index and lots of commentary. It's all colour and well worth the price I paid... I see a lot of disasters in the making but if I can master a few I will be well stoked. Go for this book. The only knocking of a star is from the semi-disorganization of the cuisines, I would have preferred the cuisines to be divided regionally instead of being all thrown together. Now this could be intentional so you don't focus on a specific region, but still it is a bit strewn... All in I would give this book 4.5*'s - nasty recipes aside. Well chuffed with this purchase!

Enticing and intriguing
I bought this for my travel and spice loving cousin for Christmas. He was really inspired and was already planning a trip to his local Asian supermarket for ingredients within minutes of opening it. We both loved the way Tom Parker-Bowles sets the scene for each dish, bringing the whole street-food experience to life, which set us off on trips down memory lane to our own backstreet eating experiences.A great buy for a foodie with itchy feet.

Not very easy to use
Bought to use for students, difficult to read, all measurements in cups!

Utter garbage!
This is awful. It's just badly shot photographs of the book. It won't let you zoom in, on the page.It is utterly not fit for purpose.DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY.

Easy for an inexperienced person to make something great
Great pictures, easy instructions. Interesting omission of some areas in SE Asia such as Laos, but does include less common areas such as Peru. Only negative - no free samples included...

Tout sur ce que chacun fait de mieux
J'ai pris ce livre à titre professionnel et personnel et j'en suis ravie.Je recherchais un livre qui parlait de cuisine du monde et je vous avoue que celui-ci est répond très bien.

Easy little book
Quite a lot going on recipe wise. Looks like fun

Fantastic Freebie, but ONLY on Kindle for PC Windows 8
Jam packed with beautiful photos and fascinating food information. However, and it's a big however, unless you're able to view this on a large monitor (mine is 27") the text will be impossible to make out--unless you have some sort of super vision. It is totally inappropriate for any of the handheld Kindles.I've not tried any of the recipes, though they "read" authentic. I'm happy to purchase just for the pictures and the info goodies. Lonely Planet always does a great job, but some books just aren't adaptable to e-readers.

buoni i contenuti ma l'impaginazione é terribile
come da titolo, é uno dei pochi casi dove consiglio molto vivamente la versione cartacea, su kindle ipad é illeggibile
