    5.0 out of 5 stars An Amazing Resource, June 20, 2007

    For a gourmet cook like me, this is an amazing resource. One tends shop near home and I know quite well all the best providers on the Upper East Side. However, for many products, the best suppliers are in other parts of town that I am much less familiar with; I cannot wait to visit some of the wonderful shops that are described. Extra bonuses are the recepies and, particularly, the wonderful photographs. Great for the kitchen, the coffee table and gifts. A must for every Manhattan resident.

    Consider this visual treat a must-own for serious foodies and cooks alike. Stunning photography best likened on a full stomach otherwise the hunger pains become woefully apparent. Here's an excellent gift for a friend who shares your love of foraging. Wish "Gourmet Shops of New York" had a glove-compartment size edition for my travels throughout the wonderful & exciting boroughs of NYC. Susan Meisel and Nathalie Sann have written an endless quest for the best.
