Funny but i was at distrito friday night to try one of the Iron Chefs winning dishes and the book was on display by the hostess and was being sold for $35.
Flipped through the book real quick and the recipes sound/look delicious but there was a shocking lack of pictures…
Sure there were some but Id like to see more in a cookbook…

Rory,
It’s not you, it’s us. We added the prominent Amada mention after your comment.
