Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
If Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw cooked, and wrote a cookbook, this might be it. It's a sassy collection of recipes and menus for the occasions and stages of relationships (from flings to marriage), with dating advice, sex sidebars and a dash of etiquette-a primer on "caviar for newbies"; a key to the pronunciation of wines and international foods; suggestions for successful key exchange0thrown in for good measure. Malouf, co-host of Hot off the Grill with Bobby Flay and host of the WE network's Full Frontal Fashion, offers stories from her own dating life along with simple-chic recipes such as Funky Mimosas for the morning-after breakfast; Pan-Roasted Chicken with Rosemary-Lemon Butter, Blue Cheese Arugula Salad with Honeyed Walnuts, and Grilled Asparagus with Balsamic Vinaigrette for the first home-cooked meal; and Chicken Ramani, Cucumber Raita, and Minty Cuban Mojitos for keeping things "hot." Readers in any phase of a relationship-and especially readers in no relationship at all-will be entertained and informed by this volume and will enjoy its modern design and fun photographs by Ben Fink.

Booty-ful food,
By A Customer
This review is from: Booty Food (Hardcover)
I have never bought a book like this before, but I've seen Jacqui on "Hot Off the Grill" and thought I would check it out. Wow, does she know how to get the juices flowing! Her recipes are great. I have tried a few and though some are complicated and require some hard to find ingredients where I live, the taste was delicious! Way to go Jacqui! When is the next book coming HOT off the presses?

I love this cook book!!!,
By Rachel Ann Hamilton (Washington, D.C.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Booty Food (Hardcover)
It's funny, it's sassy and the recipes are to die for!!! The bacon-wrapped scallops, the mango-brie quesadillas, the chocolate pudding....forget about it! And Jacqui Malouf is so funny and real that it's like cooking with a best friend. She takes the pressure to be perfect off with her hilarious commentary and her get-real approach. And, she provides all kinds of shortcuts so that you can get back to the bedroom as quickly as possible. This book would be a great gift for seasoned cooks or people who are new in the kitchen, not to mention a great wedding shower gift!

You Wish You Wrote This...,
By Jeremy du Brul (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Booty Food (Hardcover)
A simple concept that has been pondered and agonized for years. For centuries, food and sex has been linked... some of it are oysters, some of it is cobra's blood. Jaqui dispenses advice that does not deal with cobra's blood, but more readily found at your local grocery store (including cleaning products... i.e. clean up the joint before he/she comes over)and some pretty solid dating advice.Let's face it, Bobby Flay's second bannana was the only reason why we guys watched Bobby; she's total eye candy, she's funny and she's into food. And she's written a nuts to bolts book on how to get the girl (or guy), centered around food. For someone like me, I take the advice. I can cook circles around most... no idle boast. I welcome all challengers. But the dating thing, I can always use better information. Jacqui is irrevernt at times and very poinient at other times. Her language is breezy and fun, but drives some pretty solid points home... keep it simple, stupid! If you want to impress, keep it tasty; but not so elaborate that you're spending all bloody night in the kitchen and not in the bedroom... except for a very special night. Then again, that's why the term "mis en plas" exists. Everything in it's place... plan ahead, prep ahead and you won't be stuck in the kitchen all night. And be yourself; keep your wits about you. I don't know if this book will neccesarily help you in getting laid or finding that special someone that you're going to bring home to Mom and Dad, but this book ain't going to hurt your chances either. It's a fun read, the recipes are solid... and there are some way cute pics of Jacqui to boot. And you don't have to grill the potatoes in the Grilled Red Bliss Potatoes with Wasabi Creme Fraiche either... boil till just done, chill 'em and slice 'em. Recipes like that are highly adaptable... improvisation in the kitchen is good for improvisation in the bedroom. best of luck to all. And congratulations to Jacqui. It's a rock solid book.
