Review: Just Like Others Have Said...An Everyday Lucknow Cookbook and NOT Shahi/Nawabi Dastarkhwan - I want to confirm and verify that this book is an on-demand printed book (probably the large Ingram Content Group), meaning that the ordered date corresponds to the printed date in the back of the book. The photographs in the book are black and white. There is NO color food photography in the book. I ordered mine through "Shipped and Sold by desertcart." If you're looking for an everyday Lucknowi cookbook, this is it. It will be a great and wonderful addition to your cooking library. If, on the other hand, you're expecting Awadi in the style of Nawabi cuisine, you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for shahi/nawabi style of Awadh cooking, I personally recommend "Dastarkhwan-e Awadh" and "Flavours of Avadh." I have both of these books, and they're excellent. Ronald N. Tan @ "Tan Can Cook" Vacaville, California, USA Review: much more authentic recipes if you google - Returned the book . One look at their Galouti Kabab recipe and I returned the book Checkout Ranveer Brar recipe for the same on net or youtube and just by looking at his masala you will know the difference. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #996,779 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #3,631 in Quick & Easy Cooking (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 267 Reviews | ## Images ![The Lucknow Cookbook: A collection of recipes that celebrates the tehzeeb and nazaakat of Lucknow - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hpKyqWaIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Just Like Others Have Said...An Everyday Lucknow Cookbook and NOT Shahi/Nawabi Dastarkhwan *by R***N on November 27, 2023* I want to confirm and verify that this book is an on-demand printed book (probably the large Ingram Content Group), meaning that the ordered date corresponds to the printed date in the back of the book.
