Description
Sally Abé's memoir offers a stirring insight into the world of professional kitchens, challenging the dominant view that women 'belong in the kitchen'. With unflinching honesty, she recounts her journey from a young cook struggling to make ends meet to becoming one of the most successful fine-dining chefs today. Abé pulls back the curtain on restaurant kitchens, revealing the realities of a male-dominated industry where women are often erased. Her story is filled with tales of Michelin-starred food and the relentlessness of kitchens, as well as hope for the future of the culinary landscape. This memoir is a powerful manifesto, one that aims to change the way we think about professional kitchens and the role of women within them.
