There is something magically compelling about the idea of making such foods at home...The allure is undeniable, and [the books are] stuffed with tidbits and lore you're unlikely to find anywhere else. These probably come as close as you can get to the original recipes. --Boston Herald
This is the cookbook to satisfy all your cravings. --Juli Huss, author of The Faux Gourmet
The recipes are easy to follow and... by preparing your own versions of restaurant meals you will almost always save money. --Arizona Daily Star
[Wilbur's] recipes use everyday supermarket ingredients to bring brand-name foods to the home kitchen. Perhaps not surprisingly, his recipes are not complex. If anything, they reflect how easy home cooking can be. --Star Tribune (Minneapolis--St. Paul)
The assignment: Find out how to make the tasty Jack Daniels Grill Sauce used by T.G.I. Friday's restaurants. The client: Oprah Winfrey. The gumshoe: Todd Wilbur. Mission Impossible for even the most savvy food expert. But not so for Todd Wilbur, a crackerjack culinary sleuth. --Pocono Record
