| Publisher Description: "Hot grease, sharp knives, infidelity, and white truffles....The Hunger has all the right ingredients....The best memoir by a chef since Kitchen Confidential." --Jay McInerney The Hunger is the page-turning memoir from John DeLucie, chef of THE celebrity hot spot restaurant in New York City, The Waverly Inn. With an introduction by Graydon Carter, legendary Editor of Vanity Fair, The Hunger is an unabashed celebration of hard work and the good life that Anthony Bourdain fans will simply eat up--a feast for foodies that author Salman Rushdie calls, "A delightful book....I recommend it to anyone interested in good food--and good stories." |
