Kitchen Overlord Illustrated Geek Cookbook

I started this blog because I wanted a world with more geeky treats in it. 

I've looked for fun cooking and baking books over time, but never really found anything that really fit the image that I had in mind. 

Well, that is until I found Kitchen Overlord's Illustrated Geek Cookbook!

Kitchen Overlord's Illustrated Geek Cookbook is a lavishly illustrated, easy-to-use cookbook representing over 120 years of geek culture.

Artist Tom Gordon and I spent over a year collaborating to create dozens of beautifully illustrated, ridiculously geeky, and, most of all, surprisingly easy recipes. Fans of Kitchen Overlord begged us for a display worthy cookbook, because nobody really wants to rub smudgy food fingers all over their iPad while trying to scroll through a recipe online.

Your wish is our command! We ran a successful Kickstarter this summer which earned over $16,000. That money went straight into printing high quality hardback books. The printers say the books will be delivered in the next 4-8 weeks. Preorder it now and you'll get a copy signed by the author as well as a quad folded poster of our not so problematic Ice Planets to hang in your kitchen. 

This isn't yet another collection of boring nachos and cookies with recipe title puns. Instead, we give you unique recipes that look like iconic aspects of your favorite fandom.

You like science fiction? We’ve got recipes for Sandworms, Tribbles, Cylon Raiders, and lots more.

Prefer fantasy? How about washing those Princess Buttercups down with some Gelatinous Cube Jello Shots. Bring them both to a party and I promise, you’ll add plus four to your charisma.

Are you a comic lover? How about chowing down on Captain America’s Shield, Tony Stark’s Arc Reactor, or Deadpool’s Chimichangas.

Prefer the classics? We don’t stop at old school favorites like Soylent Green and a Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy recipes. We start there, then go all the way back to the earliest days of Geek culture with tributes to Cthulhu, Sherlock Holmes, and HG Wells. Then we bring it right back to the present with recipes inspired by hit shows like Once Upon a Time and the The Walking Dead.

This isn’t just a comic. It’s not just a cookbook. It’s an illustrated encyclopedia of the best of geek culture.

Check out some of the awesome recipes that are going to be in this book!

Hello, sweetie.

Your taste buds are about to take a wibbly wobbly, timey wimey adventure through the Doctor Who reboot. Megafan and food writer Chris-Rachael Oseland spent a year rewatching all of series one through six and experimenting in her kitchen to bring you a fresh recipe for every single episode.

This book is a treat for any Whovian who wants to offer more than a plate of fish fingers and a bowl of custard at your next viewing party. Want to host an elegant dinner party to show off your new Tardis corset? Start the evening with a Two Streams Garden Cocktail followed by Baked Hath, Marble Cucumber Circuits with Vesuvian Fire Dipping Sauce, Professor Yana’s Gluten Neutrino Map Binder, Slitheen Eggs, and some of Kazran’s Night Sky Fog Cups for dessert.

If you’re just getting a few friends together to watch the latest episode, why not offer them an Ood Mezze Plate to munch on as stragglers wander in followed by some quick and easy Fish Custard Tacos, Open Faced Dalek Ironsides, Sontaran Soldiers, and a Cinnamon Pull Apart Crack in the Wall. They can wash it all down with a cup of the Pond’s Wedding Punch.

Lets be honest. No Whovian gathering is complete without them, so you also get an entire bonus chapter dedicated to interesting alternative takes on fish fingers and custard.

This comprehensive cookbook includes eighteen adult beverages, more than two dozen recipes for vegetarians, twenty that are safe for people with wheat allergies, and ten for the low carb dieters. You’ll be prepared for every possible guest.

The ebook also includes over 50 full color photos, a linked table of contents for easy navigation, and a useful appendix.

Put on your fez and straighten your bow tie. You own a cookbook now. Cookbooks are cool.

Geronimo! 

 

 

I really want to throw a Doctor Who theme party and make all of this stuff! Sadly I will not be hosting one this weekend due to the fact that I'm still a season behind! I know! I can hardly believe it!

 

For those of you who are new to the Who, I'm excited to say that you can now find it on Canadian Netflix! Woohoo!

 

 

Anyway, for you who are watching this weekend, enjoy!

Allons-y!
