Books for Cooks Review

It may seem odd to describe a bookshop as delicious-smelling, but the aromas wafting out of Books for Cooks' test kitchen will whet your appetite even before you've opened one of the 8,000 cookbooks. Just about every world cuisine is represented along with a complete lineup of books by celebrity chefs. A tiny cafe at the back offers lunch dishes drawn from recipes on the shelves, as well as desserts and coffee. Menus change daily. Before you come to London, visit the shop's website to sign up for a cooking class.
