The Australian Women's Weekly: New Essentials Series

Cafe Favourites

Published 1 February 2008

This book contains simple food that tastes great too. Cafe food is fast becoming the way we eat now - not only in cafes but at home too. We're just as likely to eat a BLT or frittata for dinner these days as a 'proper' main. This book shows how to duplicate the simple unfussy food we love so much in cafes. There are breakfasts: french toast, bircher muesli, poached egg and smoked salmon on blini; main meals such as crab cakes, salads, cheeseburgers, chowder and club sandwiches and of course those cakes, biscuits and desserts that we love - friands, brownies, mud cake and chocolate tart.
