—Tom Colicchio, Chef/Owner Craft Restaurants

"Tangy allows Padma to share with us her rich cooking and eating experience. Padma has created exciting and unexpected wonderful recipes mostly inspired by her Indian heritage but with very original and personal twists. It's smart fusion at its best."

"Padma's food is a real treat to eat. She cooks in a very relaxed way-she's someone who loves food and has got an instinct for how everything goes together."—Nigella Lawson

"[Padma's] new book...imbued with her personality, is beautiful to look at, international in flavors, very New World in its Lobster Bruschetta and also very Old World in its south Indian Green Mango Curry. A joyful book both to read and to cook from."—Madhur Jaffrey

"More relevant than ever."—The Daily Meal
