I’ve been looking for a good easy-to-read modern Thai cook book for long time. This is the best so far, especially for a beginner like me. The presentation of the entire book is well packaged ready for a gift. THIS IS THE BOOK TO BUY. The introduction of this book will show you what each ingredient look like with useful detail. Then it talks about Thailand and its regions and food. Then bunch of good easy-to-follow recipes.
I ended up purchased the second one for a birthday gift. The book is durable for everyday kitchen use with nice plastic cover. You can search for recipes from the Interactive CD Rom. The software organize the menu set for you depending on the event you will cook for. Every recipes present with a beautiful presentation of each dish. It’s a little pricey, but well worth it to have on your Thai cooking collection. I can just keep on bragging about this book.

I bought this package at a hotel in Thailand because I love the food there and I want to cook it. I am a novice cook but I love this package. The production values are outstanding. Each Thai ingredient is pictured and explained in detail which is really helpful to those like me who aren’t sure what fish sauce or bale fruit is. There is a section on Thai culture that gives you the big picture for these dishes. The CDRom is really fun and is a model of how to do this beautifully, simply, and informatively. If you’ve ever eaten Thai food and want to cook it but have no idea where to start then this is perfect. It’s in depth and extensive enough for experienced cooks too.
