Finally, it was time to unveil the book :-)



Having read about the event, don't you also want to read my review? If yes, continue reading below:

The book is an exemplary one. I have read and reviewed so many books and restaurants but not a cook book. But having said that, when I browsed this book, I could not resist my temptation to review this.

I follow Master Chef and other Cookery programs in local channels. I have also got cook books from Chef Sanjeev Kapur and Master Chef Vikas Khanna. I have also got books of Chef Dhamu and Chef Venkatesh Bhat (popular chefs in Tamilnadu).

What makes this book special?

The book is unique and the richness of the book, be it with pictures or the way the recipe being presented makes it on par with books being published internationally. This justifies the price of the book as well.

There are 100 awesome recipes in this book and most of them were inspired by Top 28 Models and Actors which includes the likes of:

1. Priyanka Chopra
2. Gul Panag
3. Trisha Krishnan
4. Milind Soman
5. Ujwala Raut
6. Aditi Govitriker
7. Madhu Sapre to name a few.

The book consists of both Veg and Non-Veg delicacies. The non-veg delicacies comprises of eggs, chicken, pork and lamb, seafood. Most of them are unique dishes and the way of preparation has been explained in simple English.

This book would surely appeal whether you are a vegan or otherwise. Ways of preparation has been mentioned in simple steps. I can safely bet that this book can even make a novice or a beginner to learn quickly and eat healthily. 

As said by the author and Malaika, eat the food you like but in limited quantities. Avoid fried and deep fried foods. Exercise as and when possible though regular exercise is recommended. 

What are you waiting for? Buy this amazing book today. You will surely appreciate the quality of the content in this one of a kind cook book.



The book is available on AmazonIndia and other leading bookstores.

If you ask me, I would surely say that Studying Abroad is certainly a boon. Why is that? India is home to many universities which are known worldwide. Having said that, we must also accept the fact that none of them are in Top 20 at least.
