Heat
the last book i read was "Heat" by Bill Bruford, when i was on the flight home to CA on Christmas Day. the book was a fun, engaging read and thoroughly entertaining while providing a glimpse into the kitchen of upscale restaurant establishments. i always thought that being a chef/cook would be a fun job but it turns out to be a very high stress and competitive environment. i guess what seems to be fun as a hobby most often turns out to be stressful when it's a job...
it was amusing to read about all the cussing that goes on behind the scenes and what a colorful lot chefs are. i remember reading about some cook's blunt description of making bolognese sauce as "cooking the shit out of the f*rs". whoa, can't miss the message there...
