A Woman's Place is in the Kitchen
Author: Sally Abé
Publisher: Fleet

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
'Sally really tells it how it is . . . This book will be a go to for those needing that bit of bravery and resilience in a world that needs more people like her' CANDICE BROWN 'Wow. Sally's book is an insightful, honest account of a young cook's journey to an inspirational chef' ANGELA HARTNETT 'She doesn't so much pull back the curtains as yank them away, revealing the plain truth of what it takes to get dinner on to your plate' OBSERVER This is the story of Sally Abé's rise to become an award-winning chef in the brutal world of restaurant kitchens; how a girl from the midlands who used to cook herself Smash to get by is now one of the most successful fine-dining chefs working today. It's a familiar trope: angry men berating each other in kitchens as pots furiously boil, sauces burn and a giant slab of beef rests in the background. The dominant view of a professional kitchen is one of chaos and pent-up fury - a gladiatorial contest of male ego. Why then do we also hear the misogynistic refrain that women 'belong in the kitchen' if, in a professional context, they're all but erased from them? A Woman's Place is in the Kitchen is a stirring manifesto - drawing back the curtain on restaurant kitchens to show how she is endeavouring to change them for the better. Filled with stories of Michelin-starred food, the relentlessness of kitchens, as well as the hope for the future of the culinary landscape, Sally's memoir is set to become a classic.

The Savoy Cookbook
Author: Anton Edelmann
Publisher: Pavilion
ISBN: 9781862055490
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
Founded in 1889 on the Strand in London's West End. The Savoy is one of the world's most famous hotels. As the place where Monet painted the Thames from his hotel window, where Escoffier concocted Peches Nellie Melba and Lobster Thermidor, and the first British dry Martini was stirred, The Savoy has a world-wide reputation to uphold. And this it does magnificently, pampering its guests in legendary style and luxury. The food at The Savoy is second to none, and it is the domain of Anton Edelmann, Maitre Chef des Cuisines at the hotel for more than two decades. In this lavish volume, he blends his passion for cooking with his equally intense passion for The Savoy. In recipes and photographs, The Savoy Cookbook traces a typical day at the hotel -- breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and beyond. A hundred recipes include both classic Savoy dishes and modern favorites, including Caviar and Scrambled Eggs with Brioche, Young Pork on Portobello Polenta with Glazed Spring Onions, and Scallop Ravioli in Saffron Broth. The dessert tray is laden with delights, while afternoon tea features exquisite sandwiches, scones, and cakes. All are clearly presented with a sensitivity to the needs of the home cook. The introductions to each chapter evoke the special ambience of The Savoy at each time of day, and feature pages explore the many facets of the hotel, from the celebrity guests who have stayed and dined there to the design of the Art Deco interior and adjoining Savoy Theatre. Complementing the text are stylish and atmospheric images by photographer Jean Cazals as well as rare pictures from The Savoy archive. Marrying the workings of a great hotel with the culinary brilliance of a top chef, this splendid book allows you to bring the magic of The Savoy into your own home. Book jacket.

The Secret Life of the Savoy
Author: Olivia Williams
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1643137395
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
The captivating story of the famed Savoy Hotel’s founders, told through three generations—and one hundred years—of glamour and high society. For the gondoliers-themed birthday dinner, the hotel obligingly flooded the courtyard to conjure the Grand Canal of Venice. Dinner was served on a silk-lined floating gondola, real swans were swimming in the water, and as a final flourish, a baby elephant borrowed from London Zoo pulled a five-foot high birthday cake. In three generations, the D'Oyly Carte family and London's Savoy Hotel pioneered the idea of the luxury hotel and the modern theater, propelled Gilbert and Sullivan to lasting stardom, made Oscar Wilde a transatlantic celebrity, inspired a P. G. Wodehouse series, and popularized early jazz, electric lights, and Art Deco. Following the history of the iconic Savoy Hotel through three generations of the D'Oyly Carte family, The Secret Life of the Savoy brings to life the extraordinary cultural legacy of the most famous hotel in the world.

Book Description
'Cities cover just 2% of the world’s surface, but consume 75% of the world’s resources’. The relationship between food and cities is fundamental to our everyday lives. Food shapes cities and through them it moulds us - along with the countryside that feeds us. Yet few of us are conscious of the process and we rarely stop to wonder how food reaches our plates.

Original, inspiring and written with infectious enthusiasm and belief, Hungry City illuminates an issue that is fundamental to us all.

Kitchen Con
Author: Trevor White
Publisher: Skyhorse Publishing Inc.
ISBN: 1611454654
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
In this tart, tautly written, hilarjously funny insider look at the restaurant business, Trevor White offers an impassioned, unbiased exposé of the world of dining out. From the most fashionable tables in New York, London, and Paris to local fast-food chains, he takes us behind the scenes and demonstrates that all too often we are being conned or cowed by overrated, egomaniacal chefs, pretentious waiters, and self-important critics, whose cursory evaluations and often prejudiced reviews can sound the death knell of a worthy eatery. A scathing attack on gourment dogma, White's defiantly populist critique of today's restaurant culture redefines the dining room as a place in which people have the right to be satisfied rather than intimidated. Included, too, is a fascibating conversation between celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain and the author, where both reveal their respective viewpoints on the culinary world. Book jacket.
