Final Fantasy XIV: The Official Cookbook : Victoria Rosenthal: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: A fantastic book whether you are a fan or not - I've cooked roughly 12 of the recipes in here and they've all been great so far. I made the 'Minstrel's Ballad' Croissants and contrary to what everyone told me they came out perfectly first and second times. The instructions are really clear and each recipe also has a story blurp relating to the game region the recipe is from at the very top. As a recipe book it can definitely hold it's own, it's got great diversity, a little chart at the back to help you cook for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten free folks, and a beautiful picture of every meal. As a lore piece you aren't going to learn anything earth shattering (except what kupo nuts taste like) but it is very cute. There is a very good bread recipe (Knights Bread) dedicated to the best knight in Ishgard, and some little lore bits about the WOL meeting with Ser Aymeric. Lots of Hrothgar representation in the pictures that aren't related to cooking. It's good to see. I'd love to see a follow-up book. Review: Fantastic cookbook if you play FFXIV! - The Final Fantasy cookbook is an essential for those who play FFXIV and love to cook. The recipes are delicious and easy to follow, and the descriptions can be quite comical, most items will be from the game itself.

A fantastic book whether you are a fan or not
I've cooked roughly 12 of the recipes in here and they've all been great so far.

Good book but a few mistakes
Looks good, nice illustrations. Lots of variety in recipes. Taking star off as they state a recipe with honey is vegan and there's a few other mistakes but nothing major

A beautifully curated cookbook! Perfect addition for any FF fan (or non-fan!)
This cookbook was a christmas present (to myself), I really wanted some themed cookbooks but I didnt want something filled with recipes that I would never be able to cook because they were either too complicated or needed too many things - this cookbook however seems absolutely perfect! I am a picky eater (a vegetarian who doesnt like many vegetables) but out of the recipes, Id be able to eat at least half of them without needing to make any adjustments and the other half have been made in a way that makes it very easy to replace things as necessary for dietary or just personal preference requirements! There is the odd interesting/specific ingredient that most might not have laying around the house and would need to get just for that recipe but I dont think this is a bad thing as maybe only a handful of the recipes need these kinds of ingredients, and it can be a good reason to push yourself to try them. You dont need to be a fan of the franchaise to enjoy this book or the recipes, but if you are then each recipe has a small story (based on and from an in-game perspective) that are such a nice touch and I really enjoy the sense of fantasy realness they add to each recipe, but they arent too long or 'in your face' so they dont take up much room if you are not a fan. The page designs and layout are simple, yet creative and easy to follow and understand, with many helpful things throughout including how much of something the recipe will yield, difficulty and even a page at the back that breaks down which recipes meet which dietary requirements as is (though as mentioned, you definitely are able to substitute for most recipes) Each recipe contains a photo or two of the final recipe, which is personally something I enjoy with cookbooks, but the book as a whole has been put together fantastically and you can see the amount of effort and love of the game that has gone into it which I think even non-fans would be able to appreciate. I counted 78 recipes, including appetizers, mains and drinks to name a few! So there are more than enough recipes in this cookbook to make it worth the price, and it has been so well put together in my opinion and I think even without the themed aspect it is still an amazing, and varied, cookbook! And, as a picky eater, I believe most people will find success with at least one of the recipes - I am most excited about the drinks recipes and look forward to trying them out for myself, and for friends and family to try!

Well presented book
I mainly grabbed it because I’m a sucker for books related to games I play. I haven’t tried out the recipes yet but they look good. A friend of mine who does cook and bake regularly borrowed it and has loved several of them.

Il libro contiene una varietà di ricette riprese dal gioco, ha un'ampia scelta tra le varie portate, e anche ricette per bibite. Le misurazioni sono sia in grammi che in unità di misura americana. Le ricette vengono presentate in stile post-it sulla pagina da un Moguri e un Namazu. Davvero molto bello

Meu primeiro livro de culinária e não poderia ser melhor)) A entrega foi SUPER rápida. A qualidade dele é incrível, cheio de detalhes, e uma parte que eu achei interessante é que como eu tenho alguns ingredientes restritos na minha alimentação achei muito legal eles colocarem sobre isso. E é claro que pra quem ama cozinhar e se aventurar nesse universo vai amá-lo! E mesmo que não goste de cozinhar ele é ótimo para colecionadores. Ou seja, ele é bom para todos que amam Final Fantasy.
