1 reader’s review: “Sonia,
My copy of Androula’s Kitchen arrived, you’ll never guess –
precisely on my birthday! It couldn’t have been better timed! I am writing here
because I want my response to serve as a testimonial as well as a personal
thank you. The book is such a labour of love, and so beautifully done. What a
great mix of story, travel and cook book, reminiscences, photos, and art. A
truly unique book with something for everyone, and taken as a whole, a very
satisfying blend of visual, practical and imaginative ‘food’. I can’t wait to
try the recipes, but for the moment I am reading every word of it.
It is just so well designed and colourful, everyone should
order it for themselves and and extra one for a friend.
Congratulations,”
