Elsy introduced me to Haitian food, which I’m forever grateful to her for. My taste buds will never be the same! She has made preparing and cooking Haitian food feasible; accessible to the common consumer who wouldn’t otherwise know where to start.

I enjoyed reading Spice Up Simple Dishes With A Haitian Twist because I loved Elsy’s humor as a Chef from the beginning to the end of the book and how profound and detailed yet simple her explanations were.

I've always loved traveling and incorporating flavors from the cultures I visit into my kitchen. During this strange season where we've all had to stop or postpone our adventures, Elsy's latest book offers a welcomed reprieve. Her creative twist on standard American pantry staples with unique creole flavors is just what we need to bring a little zest back into this slower period.

Elsy Dinvil's latest book about cooking, "Spice Up Simple Dishes With A Haitian Twist," begins with her thoughts about the COVID-19 pandemic viewed through the lens of her life, then skillfully leads you into her philosophy on food and nutrition. Before you realize it, you're being introduced to Haitian spices, condiments, and basic ingredients. It's a short step from there to her many recipes.

Spice Simple Dishes with a Haitian Twist by Author Elsie Dinvil is engaging and inspiring. The book tells her personal story and is full of mouthwatering recipes. I prepared one of the recipes, Tuna Pot Pie, which instantly became a favorite. If you want to make healthy and simple recipes, I highly recommend Spice Simply Dishes with a Haitian Twist.
