I made a mistake. I must have been so interested in what I thought the title represented that I misunderstood what the book was actually about. It is a manual and guide for those who are thinking about becoming a chef as a career. The quotes from the chefs are interesting, but I confess to skimming!
This is an amazing book, It helped alot with my choice of weather to attend cooking school or not. When I read it, It made me realize that culinary arts is what I want to do and even though I know it is going to be hard,I am now prepared for it.
This book takes a while to read. The book sketches out the journey of many different individuals chefs. There are some good tips for cooking mixed within the book, as well as some fun reflections on restaurant critic visits.
