Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill Cookbook: Explosive Flavors from the Southwestern Kitchen Review
My fiance' and I spent New Year's in Las Vegas this year. While there, we dined at Mesa Grill for the first time. The food was spectacular--no other word for it other than maybe fabulous, outstanding...you get the point. We enjoyed it so much that we canceled reservations at another well known Vegas restaurant later in the week to dine there again instead. There wasn't a single thing we sampled that was less than pefect. We travel a lot and dine in many wonderful restaurants--Mesa Grill is easily in the top 5 of our favorites list. That being said, when I got home I couldn't wait to order this cookbook and see if the dishes in it were the same or at least very similar to the ones we enjoyed in the restaurant. What a wonderful surprise to find that they are! The pumpkin soup, the pork tenderloin (WOW), the 16 spice chicken, the sauces--everything has just been great. The book has a ton of brightly colored pictures of the food and is very easy to follow, even for someone who wouldn't necessarily call themselves a "gourmet". Some of the ingredients might be unusual but I've found most are easily accessed in my local markets and what I can't find there, I've been able to purchase here on Amazon.com. We are having a great time working our way through this book. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys bold flavors.
