To write about the restaurant business is easy. To write about the restaurant business through the eyes of one of the kitchen soldiers is genius. As a lifelong kitchen flunky and now restaurant owner, I make sure every young guy or gal reads this book who works for me. It is very real. I could put my name in place of yours and it would be a documentary of my life. I imagine it is weird for you to accept all this praise, yet you have earned it. Thank you from Seattle.
