Review: Super chef Michael Mina's new book is beautifully - beautifully produced and filled with beautiful photos of beautiful food. Fans of Mina's restaurants in San Francisco and Las Vegas, and Dana Point (CA) are already acquainted with his concept of trios - taking a star ingredient and interpreting it three ways. It makes for interesting dishes and variety - both for the diner and the chef.

Each of the recipes in this book - from starters through desserts, is presented in the same way - a master recipe with three distinct variations complete with unique side dishes and accompaniments.

While Mina has adapted his restaurant's favorite dishes for home cooks, be sure that this is fussy food that takes some serious time and effort to prepare. But the final result is worth the effort. If you need to impress, these recipes are sure to do the trick, even if your guests are the fussiest of foodies. But be warned, this is not for beginner cooks.

Chapters Include: First Course Trios; Fish Entree Trios; Meat Entree Trios; Dessert Trios; Michael Mina Classics; The Basics.
