(Hide Review...)  Everything is delicious!
Reviewer Permalink
We had the pleasure of eating at the Chicago Diner as we traveled across the country. I was so impressed with the food (especially the lentil loaf), that, when I saw the cookbook up at the register, I had to buy a copy. I haven't been disappointed.

Everything I've made from this cookbook has been delicious. The lentil loaf, the diner gravy, the tofu loaf, the different cookies, etc.. Last night I made the paella and it was better than the vegetarian paella we had in Spain!

If you can't get to the Chicago Diner (and even if you can), this cookbook will give you everything you need to make a host of vegan delights. Jo A. Kaucher is genius!!!

(Hide Review...)  My favorite vegan cookbook
Reviewer Permalink
This is the cookbook I turn to most often. Everything I've made from it has been fantastic. We frequently make the lentil loaf, which is amazing! The green rice is to die for! The shepherd's pie is awesome! My book is all bent up and stained, which is how a good cookbook should look. Definitely the best one out there. I wish they'd write another!

(Hide Review...)  Good Cookbook
Reviewer Permalink
I have gotten so many good reviews about the actual diner that I had to get this book. I dont live in Chicago so Im not fortunate enough to go here. But if I ever make it there I will give this restuarant a try. This book is a wonderful addition to my vegan cookbooks. The recipes in here are simple to make yet good and fulfilling. I reccomend this highly and i also give it 2 thumbs up!!!!

(Hide Review...)  Great Cookbook - just wish there was more
Reviewer Permalink
I'm a regular at the Chicago Diner so I was really excited to get this book. Most of the receipes are fairly easy but can be a little time consuming. However, the results are well worth it. My only complaint is that some of my favorite items are not in the book.

(Hide Review...)  Sweet (former) home Chicago
Reviewer Permalink
When I moved away from Chicago several years ago, I knew that I would really miss the food. One of the things I missed the most was brunch at the Diner. I couldn't get enough of the biscuits & hash. Thanks to this book, I still get to enjoy it as often as I wish. For any ex-Chicagoan out there yearning for some of that tasty tempeh hash (and biscuits, and gravy, and scrambled tofu, and Ex Benedict...), click "Add to Shopping Cart" right now.

(Hide Review...)  Chicago Diner Lasagna! To die for!
Reviewer Permalink
I attended the Green Fest this April at Chicago's McCormick Place and The Chicago Diner had a concession and the food they served was out of this world! Really, really. They served up huge portions and I had the lasagna and it was so good that it was beyond words.

I feel this is as good as all of the other booksthat I have bought on Vegetarian cooking. As it is from the USA it has receipes that I would not get from Australia

(Hide Review...)  Good Cookbook!
Reviewer Permalink
What initially drew me to this cookbook was the Chocolate Cake recipe that I found on the net. And yes, it is possibly the best vegan chocolate cake you'll ever have.

But that's not all this book is about. A good amount of tasty, easy to make recipes are also in here. I appreciated the glossary at the end of the book that takes the time to explain what some of the more obscure ingredients are, and where to find them.

Overall, there are more good recipes here than bad, and I would recommend it to anyone in search of tasty vegetarian recipes.
