    Rating Point :1 Helpful Point :0
    If the controls for wii sports (comes with the console) get an A for being easy and intuitive, then the Carnival controls get an F. The concept is good, but when it comes to the gameplay, it is totally ruined by the interface. You will be disappointed if you buy this game im surpised it is rated so highly.
    Only if youre THAT bored.
    Rating Point :1 Helpful Point :0
    I actually paid the $40 for this game in the store as a surprise for my boyfriend who really wanted it. I thought it might be cool too, but I ended up hating it. He on the other hand, absolutely loves it. I have no idea why. The graphics pretty much suck, the games are either pointless or impossible, its not fun AT ALL for a single player and you really want to break the t.v when the carni basically says that you might as well just end your life because you missed an impossible target. The prizes dont even unlock new games. They are just "super" versions of the one you just played. Oh, great, so now I have a new game to get tired of in less than 30 seconds. My friend and I only played it one night because we live in Pennsylvania, hate the cold, and were desperate for SOMETHING to do. We put it on the competition mode and it did keep us busy. Even though it literally went through the same 5 games time after time. This game really is only a last resort for the most desperate boredom. But really just borrow it from a friend who was stupid enough to buy it. Dont waste your own money.
    Very realistic
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
    There are many games included. Most all have a very realistic feel to them, requiring the same motions you would do in real life. There are some notable exceptions - mainly throwing at bottles, clowns, and the dunk tank. You do go through the throwing motions, but its not as simple as that. Theres a moving target that directs your aim. Timing is everything. Its pretty easy to win prizes and unlocks items to dress up your character.

    The one problem we experienced is the ring toss game. It doesnt pick up the throwing motion very well, making it frustrating to play.

    Our family has spent hours playing the games. We highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys playing the real games or just likes good clean fun.
    Love the game..but we exist too
    Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
    The game is great but there is one big major flaw. They didnt realize that people or all differnt colors. I read an interview that said they just forgot but in the game there are a few non white people. Now like i said i love the game i was just dissapointed that they would do that. Even still though thats just a small part of the game and they said the second carnival games will have shades of color so they lose a star for the color but the next games they have will be fixed so i look forward to that.

    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :1
    This was our first panini press so I wasnt sure what to expect. Honestly, Im not sure how we lived without it for so long. It does what it says--cooks sandwiches in time with its lights. The fillings are hot, the bread nicely toasted. It even makes a great quesadilla. My teenager uses it all the time, and its great for the times Im not here or feeling too tired to cook much. It cleans very easily, which is another plus. This is definitely worth the money.
    this panini maker is the best ever!

We love that there is no temp. dial to adjust, it is not needed, perfect grill everytime,I would highly recommend this product.

    California Pizza Kitchen Pasta, Salads, Soups, And Sides

    Product Description

    Just like the first CPK cookbook, expect Pasta, Salads, Soups, and Sides to be one of the hottest cookbooks of the year. The CPK chain of restaurants is bigger than ever, and thi5 new hook will be published in the cool California style that has made the first book and the restaurants themselves so popular.

    Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :0
    I got this cookbook because I loved the the Thai Chicken Tortilla Spring Rolls and wanted to make them at home. The results were phenomenal. They tasted just like the ones I have gotten in the restaurant and best of all I could adapt them to meet my personal preferences. Ive made them with tofu as well for my vegetarian friends and have gotten rave reviews for that version as well. So far I have gone on to have great results with many other recipes like Jambalaya Pasta with Chicken, which is equally delicious.

    As other reviewers have mentioned, these recipes are pretty involved and call for quite a lot of ingredients. However, I find that the results are worth it because the flavor is so close to what you get in the restaurant. Also, some of the components can easily be made ahead of time to get the meal on the table more quickly when you want to eat. For example, when I made the Tortilla Spring Rolls for a party I made all of the components ahead of time so that all I had to do before the party was assemble and bake.

    Overall if you dont mind long ingredient lists and a bit of prep time I think youll be impressed with how much these recipes taste like their restaurant counterparts. I cant wait to try more recipes from the book.
    Amazing Recipes in this book!!!
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
    I hosted Bunko a couple of weeks ago with a "pizza" theme. After I opted to order some fancy pizzas from CPK (pre-baked - all I had to do was stick them in the oven for 5 minutes), I chose to do the Spinach and Artichoke Dip from this book as well as the Field Greens Salad and the White Balsamic Provencal Salad. Well, the dip was amazing! One of the ladies said: "Just give me a spoon!" to which we all had a good laugh! It was that good!!! The Field Greens Salad (I substituted sugared walnuts and pear for the tomatoes) was a total "hit" as well! I will make these recipes again and again!

    I am a pretty good cook and an avid CPK customer. I did not feel the food tasted as good as from the restaurant. I know that restaurants have better stoves and ovens but I just did not enjoy the items I made. Not a bad cookbook as it does make you want to go to CPK to eat.

    Be prepared for a bit of complexity
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :1
    This is a wonderful cookbook and REALLY does tell you how to make the CPK pizzas true to ones we enjoy at CPK.
    You should be aware of a few things:
    1) Buy a Pizza Stone, it makes the pizzas cook better
    2) Be prepared for a bit of work. Making the dough the way they say takes longer than a day, since you have to let the dough sit, rise, punch it down, let it rise and so on.
    3) The sauces and ingredients are accurate, but, wow, some of them arent so easy to make. I love the Tandoori Chicken Pizza, but between making that and my wifes Garlic Shrimp Pizza, it took me 4 hours!

    Is the payoff worth the effort? Well, seeing that a Pizza at CPK costs, what, around 12 bucks, its cheaper to go there and get it. However, if you truly want to know how to make Pizzas the CPK way, this is your book!
    Looks Cute, but Pizza Dough is way too soft and soggy...
    Rating Point :1 Helpful Point :0
    The California Pizza Kitchen Cookbook book looks cute and promising enough, but the bread flour recommended in the book for pizza dough does not have high enough gluten. Without using high-gluten flour (OR making it with vital wheat gluten), resulting crust is too soft and soggy, not crispy at all. Some people like it like this, but cant make the specified 9" pizzas without the dough coming apart and then having to patch it its just not elastic enough. The dough is actually not a dough, but more like a very sticky batter which sticks to the bottom of the KitchenAid stand mixer and therefore doesnt get much mixing because of this and because theres so little of it. Very sticky to handle and, again, theres just not enough batter-dough made from the recipe to make what they claim, so be ready to do some recipe calculations.

    The instructions for making the dough are poorly written, resulting in vagueness, misunderstandings, and lots of rereading to try to figure out what they want you to do.

    Ill stick with THE ULTIMATE PIZZA MANUAL, which gives me real incredible pizza.

    Rating Point :3 Helpful Point :1
    I was a bit dissapppointed. I purchased this cook book thinking it was a cook book that featured all of the food found in California Pizza Kitchen Restaurants. Well needless to say my favorite Salad is not featured in this book. I always enjoy a Field Green Salad with Gorgonzola cheese this salad is not listed in the book...Putting together the salad is a breeze...I just wish I knew the ingredients to the dressing that makes it all worth while!

    If you are only interested in the actual Pizza & Pasta recipes then this is still a great buy!!!

    The two cookbooks are wonderful additions to any collection. The recipes are easy to follow and its like bringing California Pizza Kitchen into your own home, hands down. The only down side is these books dont have any new or newer reccipes. The salad dressings are the same and the pizza recipes are the same, but the other items that CPK offers now, these 2 cookbooks are very limited in the menu they have now and have had for the last ten years. We love what they do offer in the cookbooks and I hope they come out with a newer updated version.
