Oustanding!,
By Jay (Buffalo, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: reFresh: Contemporary Vegan Recipes From the Award Winning Fresh Restaurants (Paperback)
I really enjoy the recipes in this book and cannot wait for my next visit to Toronto to eat at Fresh. The veggie burger recipe alone is worth the price of the book, IMO. The marinated tofu (done on a George Foreman grill at my house) is also a winner. To the people at Fresh restaurant - thank you for sharing.

Complicated Delicacies!,
By Joanna (Toronto, ON) - See all my reviews
This review is from: reFresh: Contemporary Vegan Recipes From the Award Winning Fresh Restaurants (Paperback)
Delicious recipes with loooong lists of ingredients. Not for a spontaneous cook: you need to carefully plan which recipe you're going to cook, do all the shopping required for that recipe in advance, and then block off some time to carefully craft your selected dish.E.g. "Simple Rice Bowl" -4 cups cooked brown basmati rice (see p. 3 for instructions on cooking rice) -1 batch Tahini Sauce (see p.98 for instructions on preparing the Tahini Sauce: 6 additional ingredients + food processor) -8 tsp tamari -2 carrots, grated -1 bunch parsley, chopped -1 lemon, cut in wedges And, it is typically served topped with Marinated Tofu (see p. 90) or Marinated Tempeh (see p.89). And this is the SIMPLE Rice Bowl :-) For whatever it's worth, I made it, and it was absolutely delicious, but very labour intense... ideal for a restaurant, but a little impractical for a weeknight supper at home :-) Having said that, the dishes really are delicious, and worth the planning and the effort. The book itself is beautiful: glossy paper, a ton of gorgeous colored pictures... As to the juice recipes in the second part of the book: they're surprisingly tasty and easy to make.

Excellent,
This review is from: reFresh: Contemporary Vegan Recipes From the Award Winning Fresh Restaurants (Paperback)
Terrific book. I visited one of the restaurants and many of menu items are in this book, despite it being their oldest book (new version of, that is). The recipes are fairly simple; in fact I'd even call them too simple. I have others, in a similar theme, that are only marginally more complicated and tastier, but I bought this book for the theme and to to build a base of experience in fresh vegan cooking (I'm not a vegan, but can't eat dairy and I'm trying to cut down on refined foods) and this book achieves that. Way too much juice content for my interest, but I knew that before I purchased. Heck, maybe I'll get a juicer.What I like best is the way in which recipes build on one another. ie the Sauce section includes a handful of sauces that are used and built upon elsewhere in the book. Perhaps obvious for sauces, but also true for other sections. This makes it easy to use up left overs, and aids in recipe cross-pollination.
