Simple & Easy to Use - A Practical approach to eating out June 27, 2007 The Love of Food (Chicago, IL) This guide is extremely to use. It provides sample menus that you'd see at Chinese, Indian and Thai restaurants. Then you are provided with descriptions of each dish and how it is prepared and the ingredients used. From there you are provided with specific considerations as to how the preparation or ingredient list may affect you if you have Gluten or Allergen issues.
This book is the size of a passport and very organized and well written. The Chinese, Indian and Thai Cuisine Passport is perfect for making choices while traveling, or while dining at your favorite local restaurant.
A real disappointment November 10, 2006 M. Huskins (Los Angeles CA) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this little book because I am gluten intolerant and was traveling to Asia. I had hoped for lists of common food items I could eat or phrases to help me ask about what was safe and did not find the information I wanted.
