Recipes with a Story – ChefDeik

Wednesday 17 September, 2025

London Book Publisher proudly announces the release of Recipes with a Story – ChefDeik, a cookbook unlike any other. Written by Emilio Deik, known to his readers as ChefDeik, this work blends carefully tested recipes with the rich stories behind them, brought to life through exquisite hand-painted botanical illustrations.


A Cookbook Four Years in the Making


This project took more than four years to complete, not because of the recipes alone, but because of the artistry that accompanies them. Each of the 80+ dishes is paired with a unique story and a meticulously painted illustration, some of which took over eight weeks to create. The result is more than a cookbook: it is a work of art that can be read, cooked from, and admired.

Recipes with a Story rests on three pillars:



The book also introduces a recipe-building matrix system that allows readers to create countless variations of classics such as quiche, risotto, pizza, and sandwiches with freedom and confidence.


Why It Matters


In an age of quick food videos and fleeting trends, this book brings back the depth of culinary heritage. It explores identity, cultural memory, and the traditions that shape the way we cook today. Early readers and local chefs have praised its authenticity, heartfelt tone, and artistic beauty.
