Eat What You Watch: A Cookbook for Movie Lovers
£13.60£15.20 (-11%)
Many of our favourite movies come with a side of iconic food moments: the comforting frothy butterbeer from Harry Potter, the sumptuous apple strudel from Inglorious Basterds, the delectable deli fare from When Harry Met Sally, or Remy the rat-chef’s signature ratatouille in Ratatouille.
In this cookbook, author Andrew Rea (of the hit YouTube channel ‘Binging with Babish’) recreates these iconic food scenes and many more. With recipes from more than 40 classic and cult films, Eat What You Watch is the perfect gift for both movie buffs and cooks who want to add some cinematic flair to their cooking repertoire.

Bought this for a friend as a gift. They loved it. Would definitely recommend for movie lovers.

I bought this as a present, after learning about it on an excellent blog post of gift ideas for men. I’ve not read it myself, but gifted it to a friend who loves movies, and loves cooking – so a match made in heaven. I haven’t yet got any feedback on the recipes to go on.

I bought it as pressy and the person I’ve bought it for loved it. The recepies are very easy and it’s fun seen in what movie they’ve been done. Recommended!

You may have caught Binging with Babish on youtube, with Andrew Rea creating his own recipes for food and drink from popular movies and TV series. We got the cookbook and made the recipe for the Big Kahuna burgers from Pulp Fiction and they were delicious! Not only does it inspire you to try tasty recipes from familiar films but also to check out new films and their recipes as well.
It is a great idea coming up with recipes from some of the most mouth watering delights that you see on the big screen, but the great thing is that Babish is experimental and always up for a challenge. If a recipe doesn’t turn out as expected tastewise, he will warn you in advance (Breakfast Dessert Pasta for one) but will show the benefits of making it or alternatively will make something more palatable in it’s stead, although this is generally done more on the youtube channel.
This recipe book is definetley good fun – it provides the perfect excuse to watch, make and taste.

So was excited by the title of this book thought brilliant sounds awesome but really just a book that will sit on my Kindle read once and none of the recipes inspired me. The pics looked nice the blurb was great but I think my expectations were higher and so was let down. Just me and my thoughts. I imagine there’s people out there loving making these bits. 🙂

Very good book. I love watching his videos on YouTube and couldnt resist buying my first cook book. While I won’t cook everything in this book… I’ll give it a good go.

A really easy to follow collection of recipes that are both decadent and functional. I personally plan on making the cheese soufflé from Sabrina and the crème brûlée from Amélie as part of my anniversary dinner! If you are a fan of his YouTube series, there are recipes which haven’t been featured on the show, as far as I’m aware.
Additionally, Rea has my eternal gratitude as not only is there a handy dandy conversion chart for us users of the metric system, but also “translations” at the back if you don’the know what a “broiler” is in UK English.
