External Reviews
'Britain's most inspirational food writer' - i Newspaper.
'Not only did she transform the way we cooked but she is a delight to read' - Express on Sunday.
'There is little point, in me writing another review of Elizabeth David. She puts down the most amazing and totally workable recipes, and accompanies this with the eloquence of a sophisticated and intelligent author. She is in short the first lady of cookery books and I doubt will ever be surpassed.' - Goodreads Review.
'When you read Elizabeth David, you get perfect pitch. There is an understanding and evocation of flavours, colours, scents and places that lights up the page' - The Guardian.
