Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. I'm a French chef. Exiled in the United States for twenty years. I did not say expatriated for a reason. I watch my country from a distance and carry the absence like an open wound that refuses to heal. Here, I'm also a restaurant customer. I do my grocery shopping like everyone else. And I watch this world change-aisle by aisle, plate by plate.A republic isn't built only in parliament, congress, or senate-but at the counter, at the table, and in a kitchen.That's why this book wasn't written from a kitchen but while sitting at a restaurant table. It talks about what we order, what we eat, and above all-what we've lost without even noticing.A journey between two worlds. Two countries. Two ways of eating. Two ways of living.On one side: a world where traditional cooking gets deboned by apps, where you order in three clicks what you no longer want to cook. A world where you eat while driving, while working, while chasing time.On the other: bistros, brasseries, neighborhood cafes, and old-school restaurants. Dining rooms that vibrate, kitchens that catch fire, servers hanging on, and cooks entrenched behind their stoves. And customers, torn between quinoa and beef bourguignon. A muffled but merciless war between the butter nostalgics and the gluten-free converts.This book is also about the dishes that tell a story about an era. About what we no longer dare serve or say. Food lovers looking for comfort on a plate and craftsmen holding the line.Those who do their grocery shopping like a pilgrimage and find each other at a table, around a dish in sauce, like around a compass.A culinary tale for those who love to eat, who know that food says more about us than any speech ever could.A love letter to a cuisine that still has flavor. Seasoned, as always, with sarcasm and venom.Because they're part of the taste.I'm not looking for either disciples, or followers. I'm looking for guests. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Take a splash of Italian, a dash of Polish, and a hint of Normandy, and you have me. A mutt seasoned with salted butter. Stubborn, proud, hard-headed, and vindictive. Perfumed by the smell of French baguettes and bad intentions, my life adds up to bad decisions, countless mistakes, and an inconsistency that borders on genius. I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, but it was full of shit, so I did what I do in my kitchen. I changed the menu. Model at twenty years old, restaurant GM at thirty, executive chef at forty. In between: drugs, alcohol, car crashes, spectacular resignations, and relapses. I didn't just hit rock bottom. I took a fucking lease there.That's my story-the journey of a magnificent idiot who wasn't looking for a job. but a shelter. A family. And I found it in hospitality.This is thirty years of my life in restaurants on both sides of the Atlantic-Paris, London, Saint-Barths., and Miami-with multi-million-dollar restaurants that close after six months, influencers who photograph but don't eat, and people allergic to happiness.All this, told without anesthesia and music running through it all. Because food is music you chew. Here, you'll run into line cooks on the edge of collapse and burned-out servers. Grumpy chefs and heroic sous-chefs. Friends, glorious idiots, and random ghosts passing through. Hellish services, glamorized burnouts, endless days, and pain-in-the-ass customers. But also moments of absolute grace. A gang of maniacs bonded with napalm, gods in white, a kamikaze in high heels, and even a goddamn dog that knows more about love and loyalty than most people.No glitter. No Netflix. Just my truth-raw with a lot of guitar. The quest of a man searching for his dignity, the kind you lose in drugs and booze and stitch back together with the tip of a chef's knife.Bring your broken hearts. Your ridiculous demands, and your bullshit requests.The chef is waiting, knives sharpened. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. …
