in those countries, and some delicious Yunnanese recipes although
for
these I have no basis for comparison.

So you speak here about HSSS...

I received Savoring SEA as a gift, and am surprised by how much I
use
it.
The Vietnamese recipes are especially good.

And here of SSEA...

Being the best for Vietnamese food !
Considering I already have a book by Charmaine Solomon with a chapter
on
this subject ?

Phillippe, I'm not sure what you're looking for, do you want to replace
the
C. Solomon book or add to your collection?

Amalia, I have a C. Solomon book with recipes from every? Asian country...
Looking now for more specific Vietnamese and Filipino recipes !

Japan, India and China are overbooked !
Thai is OK and Koren shall be soon...
No idea of what Yunnanese is !

If I were giving a gift, I'd give HSSS (it reads very well in addition
to
being a good cookbook). If I were buying for myself, and I had the
Solomon
regional book, and liked the results, I'd skip these two and instead
look
for country-specific books for those cuisines I like the most.

I do have multiple cookbooks for SE Asia, and I do use both these books
regularly, usually in addition to a country-specific book when making a
meal
from that country.

Don't know if that helps...
