Delightfully illustrated - the section on coffee brewing is interesting but also made me feel like a coffee heathen. A good bet for the coffee enthusiast in your life. (My favourite coffee shop in Montreal is mentioned in the resources in the back - definitely go to cafe myriad on Mackay if you are ever in Montreal, the last time I had an espresso there I told my friend I could die happy now :p)
