La Dolce Vita Cookbook Reviews
-
The perfect cookbook for authentic simple recipes and straight up travel porn. I wish I could stowaway in David and Nina's suitcases and then when they found me, they wouldn't be mad, but somehow just accepted it and fed me all the noods.

David Rocco focuses on simple Italian dishes made with seasonal and local produce, high-quality oils, and fresh herbs. He repeatedly asks readers to throw out their dried herbs! It has an attractive, colorful layout with full-page photographs of dishes and Rocco and his family (and sometimes Rocco cooking without pants on). Most recipes are printed in white text against a dark-colored background; for the most part the readibility is good, but some pages might make you squint a bit. His recipe instructions are written in more of a story-telling fashion than your usual regimented "Step 1, Step 2, Step 3..." style. My favorite part is the chapter devoted entirely to recipes you can make from leftovers or things out of the pantry. It's a cookbook after my own heart.
