"[A] delicious book. PTpin's tale is of a meteoric rise accomplished by a maniacally hard worker moving at a frenetic pace....[I]t is passion rather than ambition that carries PTpin's story forward....[F]ew relationships go sour in this savory book. Put simply, PTpin has a big heart...." Publisher's noteThe Emmy Award-winning television cooking show host traces his rise from an intimidated thirteen-year-old apprentice to a famous chef, recounting such events as his work under prestigious teachers, his journey to America, and his experiences with contemporaries. AnnotationIn this light-hearted memoir, acclaimed chef and food writer Jacques PTpin writes about his start in the food business, beginning as a 13-year-old apprentice. Before he was 23, he had cooked in a brasserie where Sartre was a regular, held a position as DeGaulle's cook, and traveled to America--where his career really took off. PTpin's story, it turns out, is very much a story of America and its appetites. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.
