Recently, I received a copy of the coolest cookbook I’ve seen in a while from Insight Editions. I thought Marvel Spider-Man The Official Cookbook would be a fun addition to our ever growing cookbook collection and I was right. Spider-Man is our friendly neighborhood to cuisine from New York City, The Spider-Verse and beyond!
Your Friendly Neighborhood Guide to NYC Cuisine!
My thanks to Insight Editions for the complimentary copy of Marvel Spider-Man The Official Cookbook for review. No further compensation was given, however, I am sharing my Amazon affiliate lion, which means I will receive a small commission should you purchase. All opinions are my own.

Are you ready to bring New York City to your kitchen? Welcome to the first ever cookbook narrated by none other than the web-slinger himself, Spider-Man. New York holds a special place in the heart of Spider-Man, so this guide to NYC’s iconic cuisine features his favorite hometown recipes, as well as those of fellow neighborhood superheroes and friends from across the Spider-Verse.
Recipes are outlined in boroughs, just like NYC. Each borough has around 9 recipes each, with superheroes special selections. Spider-Man starts us off where his career started, in Queens.

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed reading the humorous anecdotes and stories found throughout this cookbook. There are recipes for every cooking skill level, making this a fun cookbook for all ages. I enjoyed cooking with my kids, and some of the recipes have steps little helpers can do.
There’s plenty of challenging recipes to be found in this cookbook as well, especially in Manhattan, so experienced cooks should enjoy the recipes too. I can’t wait to try making a true Manhattan Clam Chowder! I liked how the cookbook brought a sense of eating and visiting each New York City borough.
I think any Marvel or Spider-Man fan would love adding this cookbook to their collection. I'm gifitng this one to my husband for his upcoming birthday! If you need help with birthday gift ideas, check out my extensive gift ideas posts .
