“WOW! The Unofficial Universal Theme Parks Cookbook opens up with short descriptions of each Universal land, and how the food/drinks available in those lands tie in with the stories surrounding them. It caused us not only to make a mental note to book a trip to the parks soon—but in the short term, it made us SO excited to jump in and try out some of our favorite recipes. Ashley’s creative narrative takes this to a whimsical yet informative level, and her recipes are straightforward and easy to follow (even for an inexperienced cook such as myself!). Re-creating food or drinks you know and love can be a daunting task, but The Unofficial Universal Theme Parks Cookbook makes it a breeze. We love being able to experience the parks at home via some of our favorite dishes out of Ashley’s cookbook!”
