Rave Reviews:


"The Breakaway Cook" is a book that will become a staple on my shelf" -- San Francisco Chronicle


"Japanese and fusion are two cuisines that make me nervous. One is daunting and the other usually a disaster. But the best new book I’ve cooked from in months dabbles in both—and nothing is lost in translation . . . A mad-scientist approach . . . amazing . . . gorgeously photographed . . . Gower borrows concepts and tastes to produce Western food with just enough Eastern exoticism . . . lively . . . a wonderment . . . borders on brilliant . . . Like a photographer who knows his technique so well he will shoot out of focus for greater effect, Gower takes Japanese ingredients and concepts into territory undoubtedly never explored in Tokyo. Or California . . . At a time when originality seems to be the missing ingredient in far too many cookbooks, Breakaway Japanese Kitchen is a good cure for the comfort-food blues.” -- The Los Angeles Times


"Here at last is the best of East and West. Eric Gower has combined the unique and subtle taste of Japan with the lusty cuisine of the West. The recipes are full of inspirational and simple ideas that are perfect for today's cook." -- Ken Hom, best-selling cookbook author
