Review:
So what this book did was have hundreds of restaurants in it and have information like opening year and founders, where it started, secret menu and such information it was then followed by a short story of the restaurent.
To be honest it wasn't much to it, it's not a very memorable book and thought it was going to be a bit more interesting that it really was.
Recommend it?
Ehhhh,,,,
