I love cookbooks, I am more of a flicker than a cook. But I must admit that the standard for cookbooks continues to grow everyday, like mentioned before they are becoming beautiful coffee table books. Thank you for sharing.

As a editorial art director who focuses on food, I love food porn as much (if not more) than the next girl. I adore the work of David Loftus and John Kernick, but Romulo Yanes has a special place in my heart, and it's nice to see his talents appreciated. One thing though: the link above doesn't seem to work. It's not an exhaustive archive of his work, but to see more visit: www.romuloyanes.com What a wonderful post.

I wish there were more cookbooks with such a high percentage of amazing food photographs in them! You are right-- There are a lot of pictures of Gordon Ramsay in the book, 19 - including the inner and outer covers and those in which he is with other people - out of a total of 119 (so 15% of the images have Mr. Ramsay in them). I gladly accept those images given that *all* of the remaining 100 images (and even those of Ramsay himself) are impeccably shot by Ditte. In my humble opinion of course! Hi April!

I own the book, and though the recipes are good - I was particularly annoyed by all the photography of Gordon Ramsay himself. It's supposed to be a cookbook - not a Gordon Ramsay picture album. I'm a UK reader, so maybe the cookbook released in the US had fewer photos of just him. I am disappointed in your review of Gordon Ramsay’s cookbook featured here.

I am sure if you google Mitch Tonks, you will see he is an ardent advocate of sustainability, starting with his own businesses. I bet you would enjoy the illustrations and information about the different species of fish in his book. It really is comprehensive and well written. @FishFriend We focused on the food photography in the books this week, so I wouldn’t say that we overlooked sustainable fishing practices.
