Bubby's Brunch Cookbook: Recipes and Menus from New York's Favorite Comfort Food Restaurant

Brunch is my favorite meal so I'm always looking for new ideas or twists for old tried and true recipes. This has a variety of recipes that I want to try from brunch cocktails to salads. So far, I have made the potato pancakes and they were delicious. I've been making potato pancakes with an old family recipe for years. This one called for more baking powder and more onion than I usually use. The steps were very clear but I think there was a mistake in the order written because it says to drain the potatoes after processing with the eggs and onion. That's like draining pancake batter, so I didn't follow the recipe steps exactly as written. I drained the potatoes after shredding and then processed them with the other ingredients. I wouldn't have known to do that if it was my first time making them, but maybe it would work as written. I also doubled the recipe, but added the same amount of salt called for originally. They would have been way too salty if I followed the recipe as written, which called for 2 tsp. of salt and 2 cups of onion for for 3 lg potatoes! Must be really large potatoes! The recipe would have been better written with cups or weight measurements for the potatoes.

This book is loaded with basic brunch recipes and many special recipes to make any brunch a success. I highly recommend it to those getting ready to host their first brunch.

Numerous delicious, easy to make recipes, most with ingredients you probably already have. Instructions are very easy to follow and just about everything sounds good. I'd recommend this for anyone who enjoys making tasty food for people they care about.

Recipes remind me of my childhood. Most are not difficult and the variety is wonderful. The book is written in a straightforward and easily understood way. This is now my favorite cookbook

This book has a few recipes that might be good for those are new to cooking, but overall nothing new or interesting.It is fun to take a traditional recipe and add a twist to it, or a bit of flair, but the original recipe cannot just be ignored. For example, a croque monster sandwich has bechamel sauce. Changing this sandwich to French toast makes it NOT a croque monsieur; still nice, but not the same thing. This book does this a few times.

I would have given this book five stars if it weren't for the fact that there are few colored photos and I like to be able to see a recipe before I cook . Lots of recipes and variety.

I received the book quickly and in mint condition. It was wrapped like a present with bookmarks inside and put in a bubble wrap envelope for extra good measure. Isaiah Thomas Books of Cape Cod is awesome! I will definitely use them again for purchases and highly recommend them. Very satisfied!

I like the different touches in old favorite breakfast dishes! Can’t wait to try some of the dishes in the book!

No pictures. Recipes are okay.

Wanted this book to remind us off New York

It was okay, but I might not have bought it if I checked it at a real book store...
