Book launch

This is such an exciting time for us - Sami and Yotam. We are barraged by compliments and good wishes about the book that we just continuously smirk and blush.
Sales seem to be great (constantly refreshing Amazon's bestsellers page) but what is more important are the reactions we get from customers and readers.
They all seem to like it - a lot. "I tried 7 recipes this week and they were all incredibly delicious," a customer in Islington told us the other day. She is taking the book to Tuscany with her to give to a friend, an accomplished Italian chef.
And there is much more. Check out these 2 reviews (we couldn't have written better ourselves):
Incredible!


Comments
I couldn't agree more with the reviews - my copy has just arrived from Amazon, I absolutely cannot wait to get home and read it cover to cover!
I've got a feeling this will be a treasure this summer when I have friends and family for dinner.
Hi
Is it possible to get a copy of the book anywhere at the moment or is everywhere waiting for a reprint at the end of June?
Thank you, Rhian
Rhian,
I believe most book stores still have copies. We sell them at the moment at all Ottolenghi branches (signed by Sami and myself) and they are also available again on amazon.co.uk.
Hope you get one!

I just wanted to write to say how much I love this cookbook. I have made about 10 recipes already and every one has been amazing (with most books there always seems to be a few duds, but i am yet to find one!). There is such an interesting mix of flavours. My favourite so far is the roasted sweet potato with maple syrup, pecans, coriander etc. I live in Australia and cant wait to go to one of the shops when I visit my brother at the end of the year.
Thanks Emma. It is fantastic to hear about people enjoying and appreciating the result of our work.
