A wonderful collection of delicious feasts, originally prepared for Sunday lunches at a Jesuit house in Birmingham. Each recipe is accompanied by a saint with a (sometimes tenuous) connection to the ingredients or the dish itself. A brief life of each saint give the book a very special dimension. For many years two Irish women have cooked Sunday lunch for the Jesuit house in Birmingham. Their guests have been the Jesuits themselves, Jesuit novices, and many other visitors. Both women emigrated from Ireland when they were young and were greatly helped by the Jesuits on their arrival in the UK. When they retired from their respective careers they wanted to give something back to the Jesuits and decided to cook a Sunday lunch. Now in their 90s and 70s respectively, they have brought their years of Sunday lunches together in this very special collection. All royalties to the Jesuit Refugee Service. The recipes are all terrific ... easy to follow and beautifully photographed. Intercom This is a lovely book ... food for the body, food for the mind. Irish Catholic
