Louie's Backyard Cookbook: Irresistible Island Dishes and the Best Ocean View in Key West (Roadfood Cookbook)

Key West is incredible. The food there is unmatched. Now bring it into your own kitchen! Louie's Backyard is a beautiful restaurant with great food. A must when you're in Key West. And make sure you head to the After deck for a drink after dinner!

I purchased the book as a present for my son who is an Executive Chef. His restaurant features a take on Southern cooking, his chicken and dumplings are outstanding. This book certainly hit the mark I am very glad that I purchased it.I confess that after reading the book, which I did give to my son, I decided to purchase a copy for myself. I truly enjoyed the book, EZ read, and the recipes are over the top. Thank you Louie's Backyard for sharing.Key West and Louie's Backyard is now added to my bucket list.

A fun cookbook to read and heaven forbid, actually use to cook a memorable meal. Southern cooking can be very fattening, heavy, unhealthy. But Louie adds pizzazz to creative cooking in the deep south. I am particularly fond of cookbooks from famous bakeries or restaurants because the recipes have been fine-tuned to please many people or they would not be in business.

Filled with outstanding recipes. I will be getting this again as gifts!

Excellent recipes. I like that most ingredients are things already in your pantry. The sauces are show stoppers!

Worth is just for the shrimp & grits recipe. We take a road trip to Key West every year for the Minimal Regatta. Raced seven years, never won, but Louie's always does. Best food on the island.

Love the book and love the restaurant even more.

This book is great as a reference book for island recipes. but I don't think I will use it that often. A good value for the price.
