- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2012I purchased this book looking for some new ides in the kitchen. I have masses of cookbooks but this one will be on the heavy rotation list. Love everything about it, the style, the substance - everything. Lots of recipes to make me hungry and the directions are clear and concise. Definitely recommend this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2013Gorgeous, Creative, Inspiring. This will get your kitchen interesting real quick. And inspire you to be more playful with your food and family and friends. Every recipe I've tried has been delicious. I only wish I had bought the American version versus this British one as the measurements are different.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2012This cookbook is just loads of fun. The graphics and layout make it full of energy. I haven't tried any of the recipes yet but I've bookmarked plenty. The only issue I have with this cookbook is there is so much going on in it at times that it is a bit overwhelming.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2013In the lovely fashion, that is a trademark of the LEON book series, the authors explain that little time and good food can go together. Say goodbye to geasy burgers and hastily prepared sandwiches and say hello to a world of fun food on the fast.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2017Unfortunately the book is damaged. The pages are coming unglued from the spine. There is also an unusual sticker page at the back. The sticky part had come away from the backing, and stuck to other parts of the page, half the stickers were missing.
As for the content, it's a very different format and some of the recipes are a bit unusual and laid out with a lot of background images making them a bit difficult to read. I was hoping to see some of the recipes for things similar to the store but couldn't find anything like that. Having said this, there are a lot of recipes in there compared to other cookbooks, so I'm sure we'll find plenty of dishes to enjoy.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2019Fantastic recipes - mix of quick dishes and more complicated meals. I can’t get enough of the Leon cookbook range
- Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2015Some unusual recipes in this book. I want to try them all.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2015Very fun cookbook. It's a little different, if you're American. I found it to be captivating, with pictures and background stories, not to mention healthy recipes. I told myself I wouldn't buy any more cookbooks. So much for that!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gezond en gevarieerd koken, maar dan mega lekker.
Heel fijn kookboek.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for the avid cook as well as for those who just want a nice meal but don't want to spend all day cooking.
Really useful book. Great for everyday cooking. recipes are easy and ingredients are not difficult to source. Bought it for my sister who hates cooking and she's in love with it. She makes recipes from it pretty much every week.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Rezepte
Wer schon immer mal ein paar gute Rezepte haben wollte und Englisch kann, für den ist das Buch super geeignet. Tolle Rezepte und Tipps und nebenbei tut man was für seine Sprachkenntnisse ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great inspiration (even for a vegetarian)
If you are expecting a word by word, easy recipe book, then Leon is not for you.
If however, you are a relatively confident cook and are looking more for inspiration in terms of mixing flavours, serving things up, refreshing and reigniting your kitchen, then Leon does the trick. It's more about cooking and getting messy, than about perfectly placed garnish and napkins.
That said, it *IS* quite the coffee table book, but for people who truly love food. Sit down, flick through the pages, and get inspired to cook something completely new. As a vegetarian I don't normally buy non-vegetarian cook books (as so much of it is irrelevant to me), but I liked Leon so much when I flicked through it, that I made an exception - and am very happy I did!
Leon is very graphics and picture driven, and yes - very "hipster". But it's a very nice cook book with PLENTY of fresh ideas, so if you can live with the hipster side of things, BUY IT!
