Where almost all poached rhino horns are sold. Africa's bloody war on poaching
Pros: A magical book, incredibly beautiful. I'm relaxing with her. I flip through the pages, look at the photographs in detail, study the recipes, try them on... The book is about how an ordinary “coffee with a sandwich” can be turned into a royal leisurely breakfast with a smile and imagination. Disadvantages: Some advantages. Comment: I don’t recommend it to those who are practical to the core. A book about delicious and healthy food is your everything.

She loved chocolate, the smell of coffee and Paris and the stars. But he didn't love her. What an insidious ***! Here's what you can say about this book: D Only translate paper and food.
Dolganin Anton, 35
Pros: Beautiful glossy edition. Disadvantages: None. Comment: I liked the book and immediately ordered another one as a gift for a friend.

Advantages: Photos, recipes. Disadvantages: Author's text: introduction, general articles about products, and a description of the sequence of actions in a recipe, the name of the dishes. The word “let’s go” before every recipe hurts my eyes. Where did you go? What did you go on? Maybe the author dreamed of being an astronaut as a child? But what does this have to do with a cookbook? The author has big problems understanding what is appropriateness and a sense of proportion. Author. Comment: Strange as it may sound, I bought the book after reading negative reviews)) well, neither the rare ingredients (although I don’t use them every day)) nor the complexity of the recipes bother me. I bought the book to broaden my horizons and update the culinary techniques used in cooking. I’m writing this review without having prepared anything from the book yet, which is not very appropriate, but there is a reason. The author's text is such that, while reading it, I began to feel a strong dislike for the author, although I had seen it a couple of times on TV before, and then only briefly. Masculinity, arrogance, harshness on display, the way the author boasts of his ability to cook, the use of phrases like “from debauchery there is a return from debauchery,” “cold pancakes twist your guts,” etc. in the comments to the recipe, etc. No, this is not what I expect from a cookbook, especially when the author's favorite chefs are Jamie Oliver and Nigella Lawson. Because all their books and TV shows are about love for life and delicious food, and this book is about demonstrating the author’s steel eggs... But the recipes are interesting, and I think you shouldn’t bother so much with salt and cornflowers, you can find an alternative, or in as a last resort find an opportunity to travel more)))

Firstly, the recipes are crude: the amount of water/flour/cereals had to be changed during the cooking process, since the dough simply cannot be formed. Secondly, in some cases it turns out not very tasty. In addition, there are a lot of rare ingredients and unnecessary photographs. The only plus is easy language, just a pleasure to read.

About when the love affair with food began
I have always loved to eat, and this is the only thing in which I did not bother my parents. And when I got married at 18 and moved in with my husband, I started experimenting with food and what could be found at that time.
About my love for breakfast
I chose breakfasts for the book for two reasons. When Arkady Novikov and I came up with Vogue cafe 12 years ago, I was convinced that the magazine needed such a beautiful idea. And the only thing I insisted on then was that the cafe had to have breakfast. Then Moscow began to flourish with business activity, many people started their day very early. Arkady really didn't want to make breakfast. He believed that at that moment it was very unpromising and not relevant, but we still started. And it worked. Precisely because sometimes it’s nice for people who have the whole working day ahead of them to make appointments in the morning, in a place where, firstly, they will feed you deliciously, and secondly, you can discuss something important with the person.
The second reason is related to the program on the Dozhd TV channel, which I hosted a year ago. Natasha Sindeeva, CEO TV channel, invited me to do something beautiful and pleasant related to food. She wanted to put emphasis on dinners and lunches, which I had absolutely no time for. And I suggested making breakfasts that you can prepare at home for your family, loved ones, and family, in no longer than 8-10 minutes. “Breakfasts with Alena Doletskaya” were made in live timing mode, it was fun and entertaining.
By the way, morning cooking can be considered a warm-up. If you see that, without going through any training or master classes, you can prepare a delicious, aromatic breakfast for your family and then run about your business, this has a very good effect on the people themselves, on their relationships, and on their mood. And most importantly, it increases people’s faith that they can go to the stove and do something with their own hands. My book even says: “For those who think they can’t cook.”
About family traditions
Growing up, we always had breakfast together as a family. These were my favorite moments, despite the fact that I had to get up very early. I liked to eavesdrop on my parents’ conversations, how they solved their affairs, which my brother and I, of course, understood nothing about. Things like hot buckwheat, which dad liked to eat with milk, and mom liked to eat from a small, small saucer with a mug of coffee. At the same time, they drew tactics and strategies for their moves on napkins, discussed the evening theater, trips to the conservatory, or plans for Saturday and Sunday. It was like this important point, although fast, maybe that’s why he continues to live in my adult life.
About your favorite childhood dish
I really loved my mother’s apple pie; she somehow managed to make shortcrust pastry very thinly and put a lot of fruit on top. I also really loved fried blue-eyed potatoes with sweet onions.
About the most delicious breakfast
This was on my first trip to America, in the early 90s. They then brought me eggs Benedict with hollandaise sauce, which I had never tried at that time. A divinely beautiful egg that spreads its yolk over a soft toasted bun and flows into the salmon - it was some kind of revelation. And now this dish seems like such an ordinary banality, but a delicious banality.
About what culinary Moscow is missing
Now, thanks to great activists, awards and festivals are being held in Moscow, and a large number of bloggers have also appeared. But Moscow is a little lacking in restaurant diversity, as well as fair pricing. And, of course, stability. Often, as soon as an establishment starts to do something well, the quality immediately drops. Russia's aversion to stability unfortunately prevents true diversity. After two years, five years or four months, you want to come to a place and know that everything will be there the way you liked it.
About what kind of breakfast to charm and conquer a man
Firstly, the dish definitely depends on the man. Before you cook his breakfast, you need to eat somewhere with him so that you know exactly what he likes. Suddenly he can’t stand the dill with which you, unfortunately, seasoned the whole breakfast. And he will have to, gritting his teeth, eat it or put it aside altogether. You also need to find out what his mother or grandmother once cooked for him. For a man, as a rule, recipes and dishes from childhood remind him of a calm and carefree time. Therefore, if his grandmother fed him millet porridge with pumpkin, you must masterfully learn how to make this particular dish.
