Brooklyn-based author, art director, and book designer Scott-Goodman introduces easy food and beverage recipes to transform one's home into the ultimate happy hour destination. Readers interested in entertaining can browse 90 recipes organized by type of cuisine, ranging from American bar classics (buffalo chicken wings with blue cheese dressing) to inventive spins on old favorites (tuna tartare on toasted wontons) to more substantial meal-sized dishes (slow-cooked Cuban roast pork sandwiches). Conveniently, the author includes cocktail options that pair well with each culinary genre.
VERDICT Impressively thorough in its variety and beautifully photographed, this collection will surely change some readers' ideas of what it means to stay in.
