Cook, Eat, Cha Cha Cha

New World cooking is hot, hot, hot -- and very cool. At San Francisco's famous Cha Cha Cha restaurant, located in the heart of Haight-Ashbury, the big flavors of Cuba and Puerto Rico come together and dance in vibrant dishes served against a backdrop of laughter, a loud Latin beat, and fabulous altars to the voodoo saint-gods of Santeria. As colorful as the restaurant itself, this unique, festive cookbook offers sixty terrific recipes for Cha Cha Cha's signature tapas and entrees (perfect for entertaining!), all accompanied by the stories, icons, and relics of Santeria, as well as full-color photographs of the dishes themselves. Savvy cooks are discovering that the spices and ingredients of the Caribbean are as fun to cook with as they are to eat. Cook! Eat! Cha cha cha!

 

Philip Bellber is a first-generation American whose Puerto Rican family raised him on savory rice and beans, teaching him early a love of Caribbean food. Born and raised in New York City, he now lives in San Francisco.

Ian Reeves is a former hard-rock miner, glue factory worker, chicken farmer, and floor mechanic. This is his first book.
