Praise for The Juhu Beach Club Cookbook
What Preeti Mistry does on the page is as delicious and exciting as what she does in her restaurant. – Anthony Bourdain
[Mistry’s] energy and passion infuse the entire cookbook, which is as exciting and inspiring to read as it is to cook from. – Publisher’s Weekly ✮ review
Mistry’s debut skillfully blends knockout recipes and career-spanning reflections. Highly recommended. – Library Journal
Every year, one or two cookbooks come out that feel like old friends. Right now, that book is Juhu Beach Club Cookbook. Between all those recipes is Mistry’s memoir, which is super-engaging. – Layla Schlack, Senior Editor, Wine Enthusiast
The Juhu Beach Club Cookbook is… one part cookbook, one part autobiography, and all parts philosophy — philosophy about what it means to eat well, what it means to be a part of your community, and what it means to navigate between the culture you live in, and the culture you come from. – The Aerogram
