Review Quotes:
"[Cravings] is dripping with energy and enthusiasm and, most of all, joy. Do not discount the value of joy. It's far too rare in food writing, and I know professionals who could learn a thing or two about joy from Teigen."
--Epicurious
"Chrissy Teigen's
Cravings is a cookbook with realistic recipes for people who like it 'spicy, salty, sticky, crunchy, juicy, oozy, ' and if you have some kind of prejudice against supermodels who unabashedly love Taco Bell, there's nothing I can do to help you. It's fun to read, with a recipe for everyone with two eyes, a stomach, and a fork. Frito pie? A chapter called 'Sh*t on toast'? Absurd sexy photo shoots with chicken wings? What's not to love? I didn't even mention the bulldogs yet. If there's one thing we can all learn from Teigen, it's not to judge a cookbook by its cover."
--Bon Appetit
"Teigen is notoriously funny, and her sense of humor comes through here, as does her self-awareness--she tackles the issue of credibility early and often, always presenting herself more as a cooking enthusiast than as an expert."
--Eater
"When was the last time you laughed out loud at a cookbook? So long ago you can't remember, which is enough of a reason to give Chrissy Teigen's first book a spin. But it's the recipes that'll keep you coming back."
--Saveur
"Maybe the best celebrity cookbook of all time."
--SELF
"Cravings is a perfect cookbook . . . it's a must-buy--never daunting, and filled with near-pornographic images of hearty, meaty, cheesy food that would make Gwyneth Paltrow explode. As a culmination of everything Teigen has built over the past few years, it's brilliant."
--Jezebel
"Cravings . . . lives up to the hype 100 percent."
--PopSugar
"We love this cookbook. It's full of things we actually want to eat."
--Refinery29
"Even the most celebrity-cookbook-skeptical reader will find it hard not to enjoy this tome from supermodel Chrissy Teigen. With self-deprecating wit and down-to-earth charm, Teigen posits herself as an enthusiastic home cook and passionate eater."
