Description
At the Chef's Table: Culinary Creativity in Elite Restaurants By Vanina Leschziner Stanford University Press, 2015 This book explores the creative work of chefs at top restaurants in New York and San Francisco. Through interviews with chefs and observations in restaurant kitchens, Leschziner examines how chefs make choices about their menus, navigating competing pressures to deliver complex dishes while managing market forces to run a profitable business. Chefs at elite restaurants face unique challenges, balancing the need to create distinctive culinary styles with the pressure to produce familiar dishes that appeal to customers. This book uses the case study of high cuisine to analyze how people in creative occupations navigate uncertainty and conflicting forces.
