05-Jan-2012
Lovely interesting book to read through as well as cook with as recipes are grouped into "occasions". Especially beneficial if you are cooking for larger numbers of people.

This book has helped me out so many times the ham in Cherry Coke is a real family treat and is so easy to do but makes a great center piece on any table.
Will be doing one for Easter very soon. Also the rhubarb crumble is the best I have tasted.Read moreLessMumsnetter candystripe

16-Dec-2010
A great book - especially for those times you want to push the boat out a bit - often used for a bit of bedroom reading once guests are invited. Chocolate hall of fame is great. Youngest DS especially likes the ginger chocolate (which Nigella says DCs don't like - ha!)

one of my most used books as it caters for when you've got big numbers to feed - which is when i want recipes. brilliant for when you casually invite 20 friends to lunch and they all accept...gulp!

06-Mar-2009
I love this book - and all other Nigella books. The recipes don't have masses of ingredients, are easy to follow and produce tasty and impressive results. The quantities are always either spot on or on the generous side. One of the only books I would cook a recipe from for a dinner party without first trying it out.

"Mixed feelings. Have felt a lot of the recipes…"
05-Jun-2008
Mixed feelings. Have felt a lot of the recipes need tweaking and I am no chefess. Have to say though that this has actually endeared me to the book as I have 'improved' them for my family with time. It is my only cook book with pencilled notes in the margins. (I have a lot of cook books). I do like Nigella's cooking. Feast is a worthy addition to your shelf.

This is a great read a swell as a glorious cookbook. I can recommend the ritzy chicken nuggets - regular appearances chez moi, and I love the section on foods for funerals.

14-Feb-2008
Absolutely fabulous book with a whole range of recipes for every occasion. I have loved every single one I've tried; all of which are easy to follow and produce great, impressive results.
The ethos of the book is to include recipes for all kinds of celebrations and festivals, from birthday meals and cakes, to weddings suppers, medieval banquets and New Year feasts.
This has quickly become my most used cookery book!Read moreLess1 person found this review helpful.
