Among the many author's cookbooks, this one stands apart because it is not at all similar to them! And you will definitely not be able to put it down once you start reading it (don’t be surprised - this is a book to read first). And you are guaranteed to work up an appetite, because Inna Metelskaya-Sheremetyeva not only cooks superbly and writes recipes with reckless abandon, but also knows how to tell incredibly interesting culinary stories that every now and then make you smile when, for example, you read about a cloudless Soviet childhood or funny cases that happened to the writer around the world.
