This was meant to be a present for a Non-cooking man, apart from the over use of the f word, no real idea why it was used so much, the recipes were not suitable for someone without the basic knowledge of cooking, as the book was described. Didn't give as present, now got unwanted book., book itself was in great condition, the photos etc were nice and the delivery was great, pity about the book.

Swordfish and scallops and lots and lots of fennel
Bought this as a gag but also for inspiration for cooking.Although they sound nice, most of the recipes in it are not suited for cooking for a family due to the expensive ingredients, i.e. swordfish, scallops.Not suitable for me and my budget, but it's a great stocking filler for Christmas or small, fun gift for a chef or food enthusiast.The intros to the dishes are are funny and, being from the catering trade myself, remind me of the typical banter between chefs in professional kitchens.

Raunchy language all the way through
The title obscures the F-word, but the text of the book doesn't. It's in every recipe along with other swear words. This might be the author's trademark or maybe an attempt at humor, but for people who are used to traditional cookbooks, it is unappetizing and in no way improves the experience of trying out the recipes. I made a terrible mistake by gifting this book to my brother-in-law and when my 86-year-old mother-in-law flipped through the pages and saw the language, she promptly sent it back to me. I would return it to Amazon, but by the time I received it, it was too late to send back for a refund. Another major shortcoming of this cookbook is there is not a single photo of the finished dishes. I guess we are just supposed to image them as f-ing good.

Christmas gift
As this is a Xmas gift for a family member, I am not yet at liberty to say it was well received. However, I think it will be a hoot just going by the title of the book.

A talking point!
Was a little dubious at ordering this for my mum as I wasn't sure to the extent of the swearing but she has read it from cover to cover. She did comment that some of the ingredients wouldn't normally be found in a UK store cupboard but overall seems happy.
