For a long time, I was looking for a recipe book that would give me authentic Konkani recipes. While there are other books that do that, this book took me on a drive through memory lane. I have thoroughly enjoyed cooking the recipes, and also re-living my childhood spent in my Grandmother's kitchen. The little stories are delightful, and the recipes specific, with a little insight into the Konkan culture and traditions. The photographs are beautiful and make you want to keep cooking.
