Reciepe - COOK BOOK HELP!

[iceicebritney]

Help! I have a friend heading down to WDW next week and i've asked her to pick me up a cookbook while she's down there. I know there is the popular "cooking with mickey volume 2" (red and white checkered, plastic binding) but what is the other cookbook that you see throughout the resort? I remember it being baby blue and robins egg blue... but i can't remember the name or what reciepes were in it. I'm looking for the book that containst he reciepe for The coral reef's lobster bisque... and i know only one of these books contained it. If anyone one could please help i'd really appreciate it!

I have 2 cookbooks. The first one that I have is titled "Cooking with Mickey and the Disney Chefs." It is white and blue just like the one that you described. I looked inside it, and the only recipe from Coral Reef Restaurant--The Living Seas is pan-seared salmon with potatoes and glazed carrots. The copyright on this cookbook is 2004. There are several great recipies in the book, and the index is based on what park or resort the food is found at with all the dishes listed in that category. I'm not sure what this one sells for.

The second cookbook that I have is one of the newest ones I have seen in the parks. The copyright on this one is 2006. It is titled "Delicious Disney--The Disney Chefs with Pam Brandon." There are excellent recipies in this one as well. As an added bonus, there are colored pictures of the dish on each page. My only complaint about this cookbook is that there is no index. It is divided into categories in the table of contents, and you just have to see that category to see what dishes are in it. I did look through the book for you though!;) Again, I did not see the lobster bisque. This book costs $40.00 if you interested in sending money with your friend.

Anyway, sorry I couldn't find the recipie for you, but now you know 2 books that don't have the recipe.

Good luck!:thumbsup:
