Customer Reviews
Not for beginners!
I downloaded this app after reading a bunch of reviews, all of which were positive and with no mention of the recipes being too advanced. I was very unpleasantly surprised by the number of steps in each recipe (20+ in 20 mins??) and the fact that my well-equipped kitchen was insufficient. I'm sorry, but people looking for 20 minute meals are not going to want to dig out a MORTER AND PESTLE. Are you kidding me? Maybe if I was experienced enough to have my own cooking show (and sous chef) this app would be useful, but for my purposes it was a disappointment and a waste of money.
So much to love, but room for improvement -- really 3.5++ stars
This is going to be a stellar app with an update or two. First off, the video concept, the tips, the recipes - all fantastic. The format and interface are superb.
But here's what's needed to put it over the top: it's too big - slow to download & install, slow to load. I love the videos, but most of them are 1-time view material. Get the message and get on with it. I'd prefer fewer if the app could be quicker to launch.
Likewise, and this is really the biggie: too much video content taking up room for recipes -- an $8 cooking app should be loaded with recipes. The ones here are terrific, but so very few. I want to cook awesome meals in 20 minutes everyday; please give me more choices. (The more recipes link is fine and all, but the website is tough to navigate on the phone and uses flash for some portions).
Streamlined and with more core content and this is a 5-star app for sure.
Best of breed
This is what a quality app should be!!! Beautifully displayed and detailed. Thumbs up to developers and oliver for creating such a rich source of information. I look forward to the updates in the future, don't stop. Well worth the money.
