    1. Find all of my reviews at: 52bookminimum/I thought eating goat would guaranty the Cubs a victory in Game 1 of the World Series . . . .In case you are unaware of some pretty important sportsball history, in 1945 a dumb motherfucker Billy Sianis thought it would be totes cool to bring his pet goat in to Wrigley Field in order to watch Game 4 of the Series. After being booted on his ass (as should have happened) Sianis cursed the Cubs' organization with a promise that they would never win a world s [...]

    2. In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley and Ten Speed Press in exchange for an honest review. But, more importantly, I need to disclose that both of my parents were Cuban. I was born in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of New York City when it had evolved from the White Harlem of comedian George Carlin’s youth into a Puerto Rican enclave and moved to the Cuban mecca of Miami at age 7. I grew up regularly eating black beans and rice, pollo en fricasé, congr [...]

    3. The food sounds amazing and the photography is beautiful. It is nice to be given a glimpse into a country that I know little about. There is nothing more inviting than sharing food and a cookbook is a great way to do that. Really beautiful, bright and fresh looking food.

    4. Cuba!: Recipes and Stories from Cuban Kitchen by Dan Goldberg et. al. is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in early, early September.Looooooooooved it. Even though my heart is in Mexican-sourced recipes, this book, its many recipes (that range from snacks to drinks to restaurant-quality homestyle main dishes), candid colorful photographs, and its beautifully textured pages (with the look of parchment, painted wood, and plaster stucco) had me imagining the flavors of lime, the grit of masa, sing [...]

    5. This makes me not only want to eat absolutely everything, but it also makes me want to visit Cuba.Rice and beansantains.o salsam. Just yum.The recipes are charming and accessible. The photos make you feel that you have been transported to Cuba, and they are so variede people, the country, the food are all beautifully represented. The written descriptions make the Cuban culture and experience vivid and accessible. This is so much more than a cookbook, it is a tour of Cuba, from kitchen to kitchen [...]

    6. Another fabulous cookbook that tells of where and how that fabulous sandwich, The Cubano was invented and why!! I've already tried a couple recipes from this book, a chicken, and the mojo sauce, fabulous, and totally enjoyed reading about this country and it's genuine people.

    7. The thing about food/cookbooks is that they're discussed as a single genre, or regarded as just books of recipes, and that's simply not true. There's all kinds of resources out there, and even more ways to use them. Whether you'll enjoy this depends on what you want and how you'll use it. If you're looking for a book that encapsulates a certain mood, has beautiful pictures, sprinklings of anecdotes and a set menu of dishes, this is a good one. Recipes are complete and will make sense to anyone w [...]

    9. I received this book as an advance reader copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.The authors – a photographer, an art director, and a writer – collaborated across five years and three trips to Cuba to produce this cookbook as “a love letter to a place and its people.” This overarching intent shines through in structure and the content of the cookbook. During their trips to Cuba, the authors explored not only the restaurants of Havana, but also the Cuban countryside and the [...]

    10. The hardest part of reading this book was the introduction, with the various appreciations regarding the situation in the country at the time of documenting the book. I have serious reasons to doubt about the truth of a quote like this: 'There is plenty of stress and deprivation in Cuba, but it does not dictate the lives of most of its people'. However, once you skip this part and land in the world of food and recipes - I doubt that many of the Cubans can afford to cook them, but you can skip pa [...]

    11. And here is my latest love in my series of destination cookbooks. I am particularly fond of this one. Many years ago (and I mean 35 or so), our family was camping in Miami. In August. One evening, a Spanish speaking woman knocked on the door of our camper. She came over to give is a mango, something we had never seen before. Back then, in rural metro Atlanta, we just didn’t see “exotic” fruit all that often or even ever. The communication barrier was broken down enough for us to figure out [...]

    12. I'm wondering if the authors have confused places or something. If they went to another island instead of Cuba, maybe in some parallel reality? or if they really visited Cuba. Because, hey, I am Cuban, I live in Cuba, I know how to cook the Cuban way and I am pretty sure that most of the recipes in this book, although they are good, are not Cuban at all.

    13. Pretty pictures. Nice-ish recipes but not "authentic" by any means. The authors just visited Cuba a few times and then made up some recipes inspired by their visits.

    14. Always wanted to take a trip to Cuba. This cookbook give you an inside look at the people, the food, the culture without even leaving your home.

    15. Here is a book that could be worth getting just for the photography, but also a book about food and culture that happens to have recipes. The recipes in Cuba! come from the three authors’ trips to the island, what they learned there, and how they can be made here. Unless you’re a real foodie with a decent budget, most people would realistically find one or a few recipes here to actually make; although, because of the simplicity of the ingredients, there is a higher percentage of “doable” [...]

    17. Cuba continues to captivate visitors with its vibrant culture, colorful cities, and incredible cuisine.Cuba! explores the magic of this country through recipes and stories that will set taste buds on fire and delight even the most well-seasoned traveler.ReviewWhat a fabulous read! Cuba! takes cookbooks to a higher level, giving as it does so much more than recipes.I enjoyed learning a little of the history of Cuba and the effects of the strict rationing which gave rise to The Paladares, private [...]

    18. Dan Goldberg, Andrea Kuhn and Jody Eddy made three trips to Cuba to do the research, cooking and photos for their cookbook ¡Cuba! Recipes and Stories from the Cuban Kitchen. They planned to focus on the paladores, underground kitchens using bootleg ingredients. However, they were overrun by tourists, so they instead turned to family cooking in the kitchens of everyday Cubans. This decision adds an authenticity and informality to the food.The photos are stunning, particularly the photos of the p [...]

    19. I decided to try out some Cuban recipes. I knew the flavor would be amazing from what some friends had told me. So when I was offered this book to review, I jumped on the opportunity. Glad that I did.My daughter isn't one to be adventurous with her food, so I had to wait for her to go visit her dad before I could try any of these recipes. So far the only one that we tried in the book was the Lobster Roll. The taste was just simply amazing! And it was very easy to make. I wasn't able to get the f [...]

    20. Now I'm just freaked out.I've been wanting to make Congri forever and am planning to serve it up at work event and haven't even looked for a recipe. And then Cuba! came along and completely made my day (along with a few other cookbooks to review so I'm in heaven). The first recipe is for Congri, so of course, I cracked up and didn't stop reading. Not only are the photos of Cuba amazing and fairly familiar to my Caribbean culture upbringing, the recipes I've been trying to nail down are included. [...]

    21. I received a free electronic copy of this book in exchange for a review for Netgalley.Based on the title, I was hoping this would be a collection of Cuban recipes and stories from a Cuban person's kitchen. I also imagined it might be full of stories from a Cuban-American person's kitchen. Nope. Instead, this book could more accurately be called Cuba! Recipes and Stories from Americans Who Visited Cuba Three Times.The book's strength is its design - you can tell, even from the cover, that the boo [...]

    22. This book is so topical now with the relaxing of some of the strained relationships between Cuba and America.The book fills two purposed, one it is a cookbook of very high standard and easy to follow recipes, but it also gives a comprehensive story of life in Cuba. The book take you into the home of these resilient people who not only offer up their food but also their life stories and their memories. I is a wonderful book that I recommend very highly and that would not only give a new twist to [...]

    23. I got a copy of this cookbook from Net Galley (many thanks!) and couldn't stop reading, I gobbled it up in one sitting and now have plans for a month of Cuban dishes at home!This charming look at Cuban cooking with nibbles of history and culture, glimpses in the lives of the people, give the reader the experience of traveling to authentic Cuban kitchens without ever leaving home. Full of recipes that are sure to please, reading this took me back to memories of my last trip to Cuba and made me hu [...]

    24. The book is filled with 75 traditional Cuban recipes. There are recipes for Tostones, Ropa Vieja, Squid Empanadas, Ribs, Plantain chips, Cuban Style Fried Chicken, Mojito Cake, and Cuban Sandwich which also comes highly recommended.From the book;"Without ingredients like rice and beans and fried plantains, Cuban cuisine would lose its identity.Snacking, chatting, and helping each other out is what it's all about in Cuba."

    25. This is not mami's copy of Cocina Criolla. More of a travelogue/history/cookbook fusion that puts some new (and some questionable) twists on the classics of Cuban cuisine. The photographs are gorgeous, and the recipes seem well thought out, but it would probably be much more authentic if some actual Cubans were involved. I would say this is a fancy, Cuba-inspired book for those looking to add to their travel/cookbook collections.

    26. Although most of the images in this book were not available, the recipes were excellent! So many good things to try. A few I doubt I will pull together, but most of them, I want badly to taste, and the stories , they made this so much more than just a cookbook. I was given this book in exchange for an honest review. Thank You!

    27. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.With a lot of history and cultural information about Cuba, this is much more than a cookbook. The recipes are delivered in an easy to read/prepare format, with gorgeous pictures. Definitely a must-read for anyone interested in Cuba and its unique cuisine.
