Izakaya: The Japanese Pub Cookbook

Something new. I've eaten at places like this in Japan but never seen a book about them before. A welcome addition to my shelves.

Bought as a present for my Dad who had recently been working in Japan. He loved it, said the recipes were very true to what he had seen in Japanese pubs. The book itself is beautiful and was in perfect condition.

I know it was originally ground breaking pretty dated now

Nice reading material!!!

Great book!

As described some ingredients are hard to find. Book is great, pictures are good. I hope to start immediately to make some recipe.

Very good

This book is for the Asian-savvy chef who wants to become more familiar with true Japanese food besides Kaiseki, sushi books, and Nobu-style Japanese food. Some ingredients may be hard to find but for the imaginative chef it should not be a problem to find alternative ingredients. The book has many descriptive parts which will help your mind get into a back-in-Japan-experience if you have been to Japan before.
