For 22 years chefs, aspiring home cooks, businesses that serve up food delights or those who just have an interest in cooking, wine, etc have been blessed in having a bookshop that is busting at the seams with amazing offerings.
Enter Books for Cooks the now infamous Victorian bookshop that has been lovingly created by husband-and-wife team Tim, and Amanda White.
This is not your everyday establishment. In fact, when one enters, you are drawn to the diverse and wide-ranging selection of books both old, new, and even those out of print making a five-minute browse almost an impossible proposition.
Tim and Amanda understand that cookbooks or any associated material has no boundaries and as a result they through years have created a book shop that has a point of difference when compared to most others.
They will match a conversation with a customer to the book that most serves their needs and if for some reason it is not on their stacked shelves, they will stop at nothing to source the required book.
Serving the needs of customers is second nature for this great couple and the devotion they have for food, wine and a great book simply shines through as one observes the conversations they conjure up with customers both old and new.
Antiquarian books take pride and place not simply for the dollar value they possess but in truth because some of these books often serve as an inspiration for those who appreciate the amazing knowledge past authors amassed and have since shared.
A book shop that loves to serve and one that endeavours to satisfy the needs of customers can easily be attached to Books for Cooks.
This great shop can be found at Queen Victoria Markets, Melbourne Victoria 3000
