Hairy Bikers Book Reviews

Food fun on two wheels - The Hairy Bikers Cookbook
It`s a travel book, a cookbook, a bike book, a photojournal all rolled into one. AND it`s essentially northern with that irreverent northern humour that comes from the welding together of two friends - one from Newcastle and the other from Barrow in Furness.
Think the Long Way Round meets Jamie Oliver but with great bikes, great recipes and laugh out loud narrative.

Fantastic stuff - The Hairy Bikers Cookbook
These guys are great - what a breath of fresh air ... literally! This rough and ready guide to cooking is just what was needed - an antidote to the likes of Gary Rhodes and Gordon Ramsay. Top stuff!

Road to Heaven! - The Hairy Bikers Cookbook
Just what cooking has been crying out for, a fresh and fun way of trying things new and exotic and making it look easy, these guys are really something special, their love for food and life makes for a really good read.

Superb! - The Hairy Bikers Ride Again
I try to cook and look for new ideas in newspapers and books. Sadly, it seems to me that most writing on food isn't about food at all. It's a statement of a lifestyle that we are expected to aspire to, nothing more. The food they describe looks more at home in an art gallery than on a plate and is accompanied by such pretentious nonsense as to make my stomach turn.
These lads clearly love their food and their sheer enthusiasm comes over brightly in this excellent book. I recommend it very highly!

Two real northern lads - The Hairy Bikers Ride Again
Forget the ponsy southern cooks (and the pseudo notherns who have moved south - hey Gordon), these are real lads who cook real food and know how to enjoy themselves at the same time. Anyone who is as big as me and is willing to strip to his Y fronts to show where each cut of meat comes from is one up in my book - you would not see Delia (even after having a drink at a Norwich game) doing that.
A book of real food for real people - nothing fancy, but something different you can feed yourself and the kids during the week.
