good fun, and nicely in the Sopranos style ; useful, too - By: Mr. Ian A. Macfarlane, 08 Apr 2007
Someone bought me this as a present, as I am very fond of 'The Sopranos'. The formula is to present a series of recipes alllegedly edited by Artie Bucco with interjections from various Sopranos regulars (Janice remembering mealtimes at home as a child, Carmela on entertaining for a large number of guests, Tony giving his views on the conduct of a sucessful barbecue, Bobby defending food for the big guy, & so on). Compared to the series it's unsubtle, but fun too, & well illustrated with pictures of the cast & some of the dishes. Certainly one to recommend to afficianados. Oh, & the recipes do work ; I've tried some of them.
A masterpice for Soprano hungry addicts - By: , 08 Apr 2005
I was so excited when I received this book as I longed for god knows how long to taste the recipes Carmela was cooking in the kitchen or make the cream buns the guys munched in the office & it was worth the wait. All the food you hear in the programme the recipes are in the book. Each character has a part in the book where they show you their favourite recipes , paulie even shows you the right way to cut a garlic while Adrianna shows you what food to order to impress your man. There is alot of fan information added to the recipes. The only gripe was that some of the ingredients are not available over here however if your into cooking you will find some way to swap them over. Well worth the money & a must for Sopranos fans !!!
Sopranos Family Cookbook - By: , 25 Oct 2004
Not very impressed with the recipies, some ingredients i'd never even heard of, many were too extravagant. The Sunday Gravy sounds yummy but it would probably take the whole day to make, & this is used in the majority of recipies. An interesting read for any big Sopranos fan but not great for the average cook.
Yum Yum Bada Bing! - By: Mrs Paula O'Connor, 27 Feb 2003
A gorgeous great looking book. There are lots of notes about the Sopranos & extended family & the many recipes are delicious if a little rich (I'll admit to being a little daunted by the "Sunday Gravy" recipe). A word of advice though, alll the recipes are in American measures but not a real problem for alll us fans!
Badda-Bing!! - By: , 24 Jan 2003
I recently bought this book for my (Sopranos Addicted) Uncle & he adores it! Not only are there some gorgeous recipes (we made the mussels last week) but the book is filled with comments, photos & cuttings form the show. Written in Soprano style language, you reallly feel like this is a collection of recipes passed down the generations of your favourite mobster family straight to you!
