Free TGI Fridays Recipe

Anyone Can Make Famous Restaurant Recipes

By John Van Sciver

Would you love to be able to make those famous restaurant recipes yourself but don't think you are a good enough cook? You might be surprised just how easy it is to turn out a fantastic dinner or lunch that will amaze your family and friends.

Popular restaurants spend years perfecting their entrees and creating step by step recipes for their chefs to follow. Unfortunately for us, they carefully guard these secret recipes because they make them money. Lucky for us, some clever cooks have spent years and thousands of dollars reverse engineering these famous recipes and documenting exactly how to make them. You can actually buy these copy cat recipes.

One of my favorite places to eat is T.G.I. Fridays. I have always liked the atmosphere but I especially like the food. Fortunately most of the cookbooks of famous restaurant recipes I found include a great selection of Fridays recipes. Not only is there a large number of them but also most of my favorite dishes are included.

Fast food recipes are the favorites of the kids. Most cookbooks contain a nice collection of these too. I especially like the copycat recipes for the sauces. In my opinion this is what sets the fast food restaurants apart from each other. By adding a restaurants' particular sauce to your own hamburger or burrito it suddenly transforms into something that you recognize and love. The cookbooks also seem to be peppered with great famous desserts. My favorites are the Cheesecake Factory recipes, but I have seen that the most popular desserts are also there from pretty much any restaurant that they have included the entrees.

These secret recipes from restaurants are great for parties and barbeques. Instead of the same old burgers and hotdogs you can grill some pretty amazing things that will impress your guests like kabobs with your favorite restaurant sauces and glazes.

The question then is whether an inexperienced cook, or just someone who hasn't really had the time to learn the proper techniques can do it. That is the best part. Most of these cookbooks break it down into easy steps that all you need to do is collect the ingredients and follow the directions.

For experienced cooks, experimenting with different spices or ingredients you can create your own unique dishes and recipes. It gives you a great starting point and you can do things like lower the fat content to make them healthier for your family. Who knows, you may be writing your own cookbook.

I have seen where snippets of certain famous restaurant recipes are posted online on some sites. However, you might want to consider just getting the cookbook instead since they are really inexpensive and you get hundreds of recipes.

Whether you are wanting to cook remarkable dishes like a master chef, or are just looking for some new ideas to spice up a party or barbeque, you will definitely impress your family and friends when you make famous restaurant recipes right in your own kitchen.
