Stories about tattoos are always cool. The inclusion of recipes was interesting but it seemed a little lacking. Like, I'm not about to go out and slaughter a pig for a recipe. That's a no can do.

I understand the reason for the drawings instead of pictures, but there were a couple tattoos where what was described in the text wasn't in the drawing, so that was disappointing

I--wait for it--devoured this book. I picked it up just for a quick skim and ended up reading the entire thing. And there's a Frederick chef featured, too!

I have no tats, I want no tats, I still find them fascinating.

There's a lot of grief in the tattoos on display here but there's also a lot of hope.

Having the tats illustrated does exactly what is intended - it forces the reader to focus on the single tattoo in question and not be overwhelmed by other body art or physical features.

I am a pretty advanced cook but with a few exceptions, most of the recipes are definitely chef level and not so easy to reproduce at home.

Seems like this would be a great gift book.
