LuLu's Kitchen, A Taste of the Gulf Coast Good Life ~ Review




ABOUT THE BOOK:
Updated with a new introduction and amazing photography, the bestselling cookbook by Lucy Buffett (chef sister of Jimmy Buffett) includes authentic family recipes from her Alabama and Florida destination restaurants, Lulu's.

LULU'S KITCHEN is Lucy Buffett's culinary guide to classic Southern coastal cuisine and is packed with more than 120 signature recipes from her famous Gulf Coast restaurant, LuLu's, and LULU'S KITCHEN is the next best thing to being there. Tucked inside are humorous stories and plenty of wit and wisdom from Lucy's own kitchen. The book features party menus, Buffett family favorites, and lots of telling it like it is. 
Recipes include soul-satisfying delights like West Indies Salad, Heavenly Fried Crab Claws, Garlic Cheese Grits, and Silver Queen Succotash-not to mention a whole chapter of specialty cocktails that will have you daydreaming of cold margaritas and warm sand between your toes.


MY THOUGHTS:

Oh my goodness! This is hands down the best book and cookbook EVER! I thought I would just "flip through" the recipes to see what I could try first, and what a surprise I found!! Lucy Buffett is not just a fabulous chef but that girl is funnnnyyyyy!!! I found myself reading her stories page after page out loud to my husband, and my oh my, we were cracking up!!

I have to say, these recipes...OH EM GEEEEE!! They look absolutely amazing and I CANNOT WAIT to try tons of them!! It's going to be a great summer with so many new recipes and a fun book to boot!

Thank you so much Anna with FSB Associates for allowing me this complimentary book in exchange for my honest review!!

Do yourself and your summer a favor and pick up a copy of LuLu's Kitchen, A Taste of the Gulf Coast good Life!!
