Parisien parfum� � la baguette et aux mauvaises intentions, ma vie est une succession de mauvaises d�cisions, un nombre incalculable d'erreurs et une incons�quence qui fr�le le g�nie.

Mannequin � vingt ans, directeur de restaurant � trente, chef de cuisine � quarante.
Entre les deux: drogues, picole, accidents, d�missions fracassantes et rechutes o� on touche le fond.

Voil� mon parcours: celui d'un cr�tin magnifique qui ne cherchait pas un m�tier, mais un refuge. Une famille. Et qui l'a retrouv�e dans la restauration.
Ce livre, c'est trente ans dans les restaurants des deux c�t�s de l'Atlantique racont�s sans filtre.
Une carri�re entre Paris, Londres, Saint-Barth et Miami, avec ses restos � plusieurs millions de dollars qui ferment au bout de 8 mois sans voir le moindre client, ses influenceurs qui photographient mais ne mangent pas, et ses allergiques au bonheur.

Ici vous d�couvrirez des cuistots au bord de la camisole, des serveurs au bord de la syncope, des clients chiants, une kamikaze en talons aiguilles - et m�me un golden retriever qui en sait plus long sur la loyaut� et l'amour que la plupart des gens.
Mais aussi des services de l'enfer, des journ�es sans fin, des burn-out glamouris�s, des moments de gr�ce absolue et une bande de fous furieux soud�s au napalm.
Vous comprendrez pourquoi le brunch est un virus, la Saint-Valentin une guerre thermonucl�aire et la f�te des m�res un traumatisme annuel.
Et surtout ce que ce m�tier nous co�te: le corps us�, les couples qui l�chent, la solitude devant un sandwich � deux heures du matin.

Pas de paillettes. Pas de Netflix.
Juste ma v�rit� - saignante, et avec beaucoup de guitare.
L'histoire d'un type qui part � la recherche de sa dignit� celle qu'on perd dans la came et l'alcool, et qu'on r�cup�re � la pointe du couteau.

Amenez vos coeurs bris�s, vos exigences ridicules et vos demandes � la con.
Le chef vous attend, couteaux aff�t�s.
