Post Punk Kitchen Forum

Does anyone have this?

I know the PPK strongly favors Asian Vegan Kitchen but wonder if this is worth having.

I do, but I have 3 of his books and they're all quite similar so I can't tell you for sure what I've made from it. I definitely like it though. I will say that his other books didn't make much sense to me until I travelled round Vietnam and had some of the dishes for myself. Then when I got back I was all "Why on earth didn't I want to cook from this before?". There is something in that one book that annoys me greatly, some kind of store bought thing, but I don't have the book in front of me. I'll have a look when I get chance, but it's only one recipe.

are buddha's table and vietnamese fusion vegan-ish?
all his cookbooks look interesting but i imagine there might be recipe overlap so i would only go for vietnamese fusion and asian fusion. how would you rank them?

is it store bought stirfry sauce?
i vaguely remember reading a review with someone complaining about it but the way it read, it sounded like chat relies heavily on store bought items in his recipes so it would be nice to know if that's the case.
