Product Details


Product Description

From Booklist

Even rock stars have to eat, and Margie Lapanja and Cindy Coverdale have polled dozens of guitarists, drummers, and singers to find out what they like to eat out and what they like to cook for themselves. Fans will pore over Food That Rocks for recipes that will make them feel emotionally closer to the musicians they admire. Recipes cover a broad range of foods: Spike Edney's chili, made with lamb and basil; Stan Harrison's BBQ brisket; and Steve Hamilton's meatballs. Much biographical data supplements the recipes so that readers can gain more insight into the background of these celebrities' favorite comestibles. Mark Knoblauch

Book Description

Music is the inspiration behind these recipes conveniently organized according to appetizers, soups and salads, entrees and desserts. The recipes are supplemented by information on musician-owned restaurants, chefs who perform in bands, musical cookbooks and, of course, songs about food. Food That Rocks features well-known performers from the world of music, including Shania Twain, Sarah McLachlan, Ted Nugent, Patti Labelle, Joe Satriani, the Grateful Dead's Bob Weir and the literary band-Rock Bottom Remainders-that includes Stephen King.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recipes that "rock"!, July 6 2004
This review is from: Food That Rocks (Paperback)
Food writer and former professional baker and magazine editor Margie Lepanja and teamed up with Cindy Coverdale (wife of David Coverdale, lead singer of Whitesnake, Deep Purple, and Coverdale Page) to issue a unique cookbook that showcases musician owned restaurants, musical cookbooks and songs about food, chefs who perform as well on stage as they do in the kitchen, and recipes that "rock"! From Spicy Chicken Wingers; Pasta Alle Bossi with Pizza Bead; Ty Peanut Sauce with Rice and Veggies; to Garlic Rubbed Rock & Roll Rib Steak; Pennsylvania Funnel Cakes; and Oatmeal Honey-Butter Biscuits, Food That Rocks are recipes that would grace any dining occasion. Enhanced with "Players' Hot Links" websites and "Hospitality Suite" acknowledgements, Food That Rocks is an enthusiastically recommended cookbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars THESE LADIES ROCK!, April 27 2004
By 
Danny Wright (Seattle WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Food That Rocks (Paperback)
I had the good fortune to chat with Cindy (one of the authors) and she was delightful. The recipes ARE really good and different tham the usual staid cookbooks. The bits on the musicians is worth the price alone - the good food is a bonus. I'm praying I don't gain too much as I go through the book.

Hey Cindy - how about using a recipe from me in the next book?!?

5.0 out of 5 stars Backstage pass and complete access, Jan 10 2004
This review is from: Food That Rocks (Paperback)
Authors Margie Lapanja and Cindy Coverdale have gathered recipes from people from all over the music world: superstars, divas, session players, and disc jockeys. You'll also find out which musicians own restaurants or have written their own cookbooks. But "Food That Rocks" is more than that. It's your very own private concert. You get a backstage pass and complete access to a myriad of recipes. It's a cookbook like no other! You have the opportunity to read all sorts of fun facts about your favourite musicians and get a glimpse into their lives because they are sharing their most-loved recipes and childhood recollections. Being a huge David Coverdale fan, the first recipe I tried, of course, was the Soulful Shrimp Soup, a delightful southwestern dish. Serve it with a salad and some corn chips and you've got a meal that is not only tasty but healthy as well. "Food That Rocks" is a great gift idea but get yourself a copy also. I can guarantee it will sit among your very favourite cookbooks and that you will be using it regularly. These are real, time-honoured recipes that are easy to make and also delicious! I can't wait to try them all. Too bad eating the same food as all these musicians won't make me any more talented! :-)
