Recenzii

Beautiful, life-affirming memoir with recipes
One of the things that makes Midnight Chicken such a very good book is how hard it is to say exactly what it is. Yes, to be sure, it's a cookbook, but it is also a manual for living and a declaration of hope
Her writing is beautiful, brave and moving. She shares wholeheartedly with her reader, not just of her experience, but also herself. This is a book for all seasons and states of mind and is as effective as a manual for life as it is as a kitchen companion
A wholly unconventional cookbook
A big old massive heart exploding love story... This is the first recipe book that should be made into a film
She has found a way to write not just about food itself but, more importantly, about the darkness for which cooking can be a partial remedy
Risbridger is the most talented British debut writer in a generation
What I'll reach for, if I wanted to read a cookbook, is probably Midnight Chicken
This is so much more than a cookbook. Beautifully written and restorative with comforting recipes and ways to find joy, you'll want to read this yourself before you give it as a gift ­ maybe buy two
I couldn't have loved Ella Risbridger's Midnight Chicken more. It's a narrative with recipes and the narrative is about love, grief and healing, and the redemptive power of stirring something at the stove, glass in hand
The new Nigella
Confessional, clever and readable
Heartfelt anecdotes and recipes will bolster your faith in the redemptive power of cooking
Midnight Chicken is so much more than a cookery book. Which isn't to say that Midnight Chicken won't nourish both your tummy and your tastebuds, but it will also nourish your soul
This is legit the warmest, friendliest, most forgiving cookbook I have ever come across
To call this a cookbook is to do it an injustice. It's a love letter to food, a manual on how to appreciate every meal, and a book of memories
She cooks like a dream and writes like an angel
Divine. Utterly totally perfect
So full of loving kindness and so thoughtfully and poetically written
Risbridger's debut is also that rare thing: a cookbook in which every recipe works
A gentle how-to on cooking real food
