    Disappointing. I was expecting more historical analysis, but it felt more like a collection of anecdotes.

  2. Lekshmi Nandana –

    I enjoyed learning about the origins of common ingredients. However, the book felt a little short. Good, but not great.

  3. Pallav Agarwal –

    Not bad, but not great either. A decent overview of Indian food history, but lacking in depth. I’ve read better.

    Interesting, but not groundbreaking. Good for a light read, but don’t expect a deep dive into history. I wish there was more on spice routes.
