POLPO does what a great cookbook should do: it makes you urgently
want to cook and breaks new territory
*Daily Telegraph*
Wonderful ... the dishes are simple, with relatively few
ingredients, but they're inspired. The grilled courgettes with
toasted breadcrumbs, for instance, was sublime. The pages of my
book are already smeared with olive oil and egg; a good sign
*Evening Standard*
A marvellously useful guide to anyone who actually wants to
cook
*Tribune*
A present for the greedy gourmets in your life
*Observer*
Delicious
*Mail on Sunday*
Gorgeous
*Daily Mail*
Like a trip round the bars and bacari of Venice
*Independent*
A delight for its goodies from Venice and beyond, beautifully
presented in a book that (hallelujah) lies flat on the kitchen
surface
*Independent*
Definitely the design classic of 2012
*Irish Times*
