I really did enjoy reading this book. I love the stories about Mike's childhood and learning about the traditions of southern Italy. Having lived and worked in Florence I know there are big differences between the northern and the southern parts of Italy. The history to the 7 fishes was something else I had no clue about. However, when it comes to cooking and eating, now that is something I can do. I loved the recipes and already have made the "Shrimp wrapped in Prosciutto" Another one I can't wait to make is the "Sole stuffed with Crab Meat"The recipes are easy to make, and delightful to eat. I would say I don't know what is better, the stories or the recipes, but the truth is, eating another one of the stuff shrimp, it's the recipes! Great book, very entertaining and some great Old World recipes that are sure to please everyone. Thanks Mike for a great little book!
