The Blue Elephant Cookbook: Royal Thai Cuisine

I actually went to the Blue Elephant Cooking School in Bangkok last month. Not only was it a wonderful experience, butI was impressed with how professional the presentation was, the cooking equipment, and the choice of foods that wemade. And the lunch was mostly our own work! The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the staff excellent. Nooror Somanywas one of the teaching chefs for the class. I thought their description and demonstrations were done so well, that the wholecooking challenge was unthreatening! That is what I found lacking in the cookbook. The descriptions of the cooking process for most of the dishes is just too simple and not detailed enough for me. But if you aren't traveling to Bangkok, this book will do.The book is older, and out of print.....so maybe a new edition is coming, with better descriptions. The photographs are beautiful, and there is a section with market buys and Thai styles in cooking and eating which are very good.

I’ve made a few recipes now and they came out great. Love the photos and the intro about Thailand and ingredients. A lot of the recipes call for the blue elephant sauce with recipe included. However, I’m having trouble tracking down those ingredients so have made without.

great book!!!

Very Nice!

Very good buy !!!!

If you like to cook Thai food this book is superb. Lovley recipies with delicious sauces. I thought I was quite good at cooking Thai food, but this book is the best I have seen. We have cooked many of the dishes and are really pleased we bought it.

A Magnificent Book from a Refined Establishment The Brussels based Blue Elephant which now includes 7 international branches and is still growing did a magnificent job with this cookbook as always under the guiding eye of its original founder Mr. Karl Steppe.Exotic recipes include Green, Red and Yellow curry dishes for beef, chicken, lamb, and vegetarian courses. This in addition to delightful and sophisticated trademarks such as the Chicken Souffle, the Tom Yum khung prawn soup, Seafood Cassoulet, the Tod Man Pla fish cakes, crab claws, pad thai noodles, several varieities of stir fry rice, the restaurants star Jasmine Cake dessert, coconut sorbet, and bananna cake.If you are ever in Beirut, Brussels, Dubai, Copenhagen, Paris, London, Lyon or New Delhi don't pass up the chance to visit the incredible experience of dining at this top notch sophisticated establishment. From the moment you enter a Blue Elephant you will be dazzled by the exotic decor.

If you like Thai food, you should definitely get this cookbook

Livre en très bon état.

The recipes are exactly what I was looking for.Seller packaged item really well and got back to me quickly when I enquired about long distance delivery. Much appreciated!

Not as detailed as you would expect it to be. I would appreciate a little bit more depth. Nice photos, decent recipes, but you will not become a Thai cook anytime soon with this book.
