Title: Easy to make wonderful flavorful recipes! Don't just get this book for Dad, get it for everyone!!
Review: There is nothing better than delicious food you can make with simple preparation in a short amount of time. Rob Rosenthal has created a book with humor and elan that is a wonderful guide for anyone but especially those who want to cook but might feel intimidated. One of the common things that holds most people back from cooking is that they are worried that it will be too difficult. I would tell them to get Short Order Dad and dive right in. What is also wonderful is that the book provides much needed guidance about the essentials like building a pantry, how to deal with disasters and general cooking information. It also provides encouragement in the form of easy to read and use recipes that will make a chef out of anyone! I just got the book and already made a dishes that were not only delicious and immensely flavorful but impressed my dinner guests! Love it love it love it. I have attached my before and after pics of the Scallops Provencal. We ate them right out of the pan (and had to stop ourselves from licking the bottom!)

Title: Never Waste a Meal
Review: The Robert Rosenthal credo: Never Waste a Meal, is both inspiring and challenging. But, but, with this book we have a legitimate shot of pursuing it. More than easy to make, tasty recipes, RR makes us confident in the kitchen and better, makes it fun. What he doesn't say, but I bet he knows, this book is just as valuable for Short Order Moms. Hey, I'll take another helping of Clams and Chorizo (p. 137). Yum

Title: Good cookbook
Review: Not just a collection of ho-hum, swiped from the internet recipes. Author presents an original and "real" cookbook. Upside down pancakes ( or whatever he calls them) is a favorite at my table and in my permanent recipe collection.

Title: YUMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I just made dinner with recipes from this book. It was the most delicious and simple to prepare meal!!!! It looked so beautiful my kids even took pictures of each dish to show their friends. I know it’s called “Short Order Dad” but I am a mom with lots of cooking experience and this book is giving me so many great recipe ideas and cooking tips. I am also really enjoying reading every page and loving the author’s funny and passionate relationship with food.

Title: Fun and light, but leaves me wanting more
Review: I was hoping to find a cookbook that would make cooking less of a chore and more of a joy. I was drawn in by the promise of hassle-free recipes and the humorous take on cooking.I chuckled a few times because of the witty writing style, and his straightforward recipes seemed just right for someone like me, who'd rather not spend hours in the kitchen.However, the more I went over the recipes and tips, the more I found myself longing for substance. I was entertained by the simplicity and humor, but they sometimes come at the expense of depth. I already have mastered the very basics and I am ready to explore a bit further, yet Short Order Dad makes me feel being stuck in first gear.One significant limitation I encountered was the book's heavy focus on recipes that aren't exactly health-conscious. A large portion of the dishes are indulgent, and while there's nothing wrong with treating oneself, the lack of healthier options was noticeable to me. Why would I waste time preparing a meal from scratch when the end product is as unhealthy as a prepackaged food from the supermarket.Furthermore, not a single recipe caters to vegans, which was disappointing. In an age where dietary preferences are diverse and many are seeking plant-based options, this oversight feels like a missed opportunity to appeal to a wider audience.I also noticed the book’s targeted appeal towards guys, filled with outdated guy humor and scenarios that felt a bit stereotypical and out of place. I understand the niche the book is going for, but in today’s culinary world, where cooking is for everyone, this angle felt somewhat limiting and outdated. Also, not all guys have the same sense of humor.

Title: SNEAKY CHEF LOVES SHORT ORDER DAD!!
Review: Just received my copy of SHORT ORDER DAD…. wow! I want to eat my way through every gorgeous page of this book. As The Sneaky Chef (who uses her husband's amazon account to buy stuff LOL), I am a total foodie and passionate about feeding our families real food.This author delivers on his promise of "never waste a meal” — you have to get a copy of this – for your hubby or yourself. Amazingly simple yet delicious recipes and clever use of ingredients – just made the kids the Baked Chicken Parmigiana and they gobbled it up - didn't even need to sneak in veggies because I served it with a side of his Glazed Carrots and they LOVED it!
