Rating: - I'm desperately hoping to mimic the restaurants...
On business, I've visited Emeril's restaurants in Las Vegas and New Orleans, and I desperately want to attempt many of the dishes at home. This book, as well as his others, have helped me tremendously. It is written simply using very common ingredients and themes, without any pretention. -Some of my stuff came out pretty decent. Good luck!

Without a lot of experienced help, you're not going to be able to create most ... Read More
