Keo's Thai cuisine
"For over twenty years, restaurant Keo Sananikone has been at the epicenter of America's increasing fascination with the cusine of Thailand. The popularity of his Thai restaurants in Hawaii, Keo explains, stems "not from doing extraordinary things; it comes from consistently doing the ordinary things extraordinarily well." The recipes from his famed restaurants have attracted Hollywood celebrities, Southeast Asian royalty, and locals in throngs--not with glitz but with savory, spicy Thai flavors. The prestigious awards garnered by Keo's restaurants speak for themselves: Bon Appetit voted Keo's "America's Best Thai Restaurant" and Gourmet named it one of "America's Top Tables."" "Keo's Thai Cusine bears testament to its author's commitment to demystifying and disseminating the cuisine of Thailand. The book that ushered in the Thai revolution in kitchens across America is back in a revised edition, featuring new photography and more of the exquisite recipes that have earned Keo Sananikone his international reputation. Each of the book's nearly 100 recipes is accompanied by simple, clear directions that ensure world-class results in any kitchen. The book's glossary and intructional diagrams introduce the uninitiated to traditional Thai ingredients and preparations, making Keo's Thai Cuisine the definitive source for home cooks serious about Thai cuisine.
