Fabulous Recipes and Wonderful Stories,
By
This review is from: Eating Royally: Recipes and Remembrances from a Palace Kitchen (Hardcover)
This is not your typical cookbook. Written by 'The Royal Chef', in fact, it's more like a royal memory book, interspersed with recipes. Kind of like a royal foodie-travelogue!The Framboise St. Georges is fabulous, and my favorite story is about Prince Harry forging a note to the chef from 'Nanny' requesting pizza for supper - it only goes to show that royal or not, children are children. McGrady's respect and admiration for Princess Diana and the family is obvious, and this is a well done, beautifully illustrated book.

Eating Royally,
By Loretta Cropley "Algonquin fossil" (lake st. peter,ontatio, canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Eating Royally: Recipes and Remembrances from a Palace Kitchen (Hardcover)
Fascinating book with lovely illustrations. I read the whole book from cover to cover. The insights into daily life at the diferent residences are just as enjoyable as the recipes.

Interesting story, and some recipes I'd like to try too,
By A. Burchfield - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Eating Royally: Recipes and Remembrances from a Palace Kitchen (Hardcover)
I'd first read that Mr. McGrady was writing this book a couple of years ago, then when I finally read about it being out (in my local newspaper, I read an interview)I decided to get myself a copy.The book is pretty well written, giving some background on McGrady and Royal life. You'll find six chapters concerning specific Royal locations, each of these will give some information on McGrady and whatever section you're reading. No scandal, no Burrell bashing- just what should be in a book of this sort. The recipes are written, in this edition anyway, for American cooks- no metric conversions for us- and will sometimes include some little bit about a particular member of the Royal family that liked the item. Most of the identified items concern the Queen or Princess Diana but some of the other family members too. I'm no cook but I think I could manage most of them myself. The photographs of the food items appear to be professionally done while most others McGrady probably took himself with his own camera. It's a pleasant and informative book to read, not too braggy, worth buying as a gift if not for yourself. The recipes will appeal to many possible readers who would not otherwise care a bit about Diana (one recipe includes a lowfat version for her and a regular version for guests)or the Royals. I may never get much use out of it but I don't regret buying it. 33 of 33 people found the following review helpful

This review is from: Eating Royally: Recipes and Remembrances from a Palace Kitchen (Hardcover)
I received this book yesterday and couldn't put it down! It is beautifully done with full color photos throughout.Favorite recipes of the Royal Family are given with a little story behind them. Kitchens of the various palaces and operations of producing meals for the private and public events are detailed. The behind-the-scenes stories are wonderful. A great resource for those interested in the Royals. Do not read if you are hungry! You'll want to rush to your kitchen and try out a recipe! 28 of 29 people found the following review helpful
