An amazing diversity of appetizers are gathered together in this tome. The appetizers come from a variety of cuisines - south american, mexican, european, and asian. The book divided the appetizers based on mode of presentation - for example chapter 1 is "sticks, picks, and with fingers", chapter 3 is "bowls and spoons", and chapter 4 is "on a raft".
In some places the instructions might be a bit thin - but the flavor profiles and generally excellent and the resulting appetizer is rich and lovely. So rich and lovely, though, that perhaps 2 or 3 would have been a better dinner than 6 or 7!
I wouldn't hesitate to return to this book for appetizer recipes for a special party.
