TOP REVIEWS for HAUTE CUISINE:
- Not so much macabre as naughty (or maybe that's just me). Humorous flights of fancy, and the best bit is that it's a page-turner. As the story develops I really couldn't wait to see what happens next. And finally, a happy ending... for most. Brilliant! Andrew Frogley
- I laughed a lot, not just at the big moments (of which there are plenty), but at the little asides.Wickedly FunnyBrilliantly original and eccentric S.B. Kelly
- This is a fast paced, dark, tongue-in-cheek funny book. I'm giving it 4 stars as only real literature deserves 5! Ajo
