Island Flavors all year round!

If you want to eat that island inspired Tommy Bahama cuisine all year round then this cookbook is for you. I personally own one and bought another for my Mom and she absolutely loves it. Constantly calling telling me how amazing the food was she made and if I didn't make it yet to get on it. You won't be disappointed with this cookbook and a perfect gift even for any Dad on Fathers Day who loves to cook.

Coffee Table Cookbook

I have purchased several of these beautiful books and given them as gifts. The recipes are amazing and the photography is stunning. Everything about this book captures the "Aloha Spirit". This is truly a cookbook that should not be shoved into a kitchen cupboard...it deserves to be front and center on a coffee table! I think it's time for me to get my own copy!!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Coffee table book!

I bought this book as a gift for another couple. I spent 3 days just pouring over the photos and recipes. It is a BEAUTIFUL book, worthy of a coffee table and every single recipe looks delicious and "do-able". The cocktail section is extensive and I'm looking forward to making each and every one of the recipes in this book! Thank you Tommy for such a wonderful product!

Vacation Inspiration!

This book is loaded with gorgeous island-style photos and is more like a coffee table book than a cookbook. The recipes are found in the last half of the book and there are very few photos of how the finished dish should look, but there is an abundance of pictures that will most definitely make you want to take a vacation.
I bought two books. One for me and one to give to a friend as a birthday gift. I'm pairing the cookbook with a bottle of Sweet Chili Mustard Sauce inside a Tommy Bahama's tote bag. We both love the crab cakes and can't wait to try the recipe.
Yes, I recommend this product.

What a pictorial that wets the palate. Ideas will abound after reading just a few minutes of this array of travel and eats.

After reading how the foods mesh with the locale it was easy to understand how one might want to visit a certain area. The two recipes I tried simply made me feel as if I was lost a beach somewhere. Great to have out a party for guests to browse.
Yes, I recommend this product.

A Gastronomic Delight On Every Page!

Having thoroughly enjoyed our dining experiences at Tommy Bahama restaurants over the years, running across a cookbook with the actual recipies was a real find. We have cooked several and found them to be true to form - DELICOUS!
