Blood, Bones & Butter

摘要

Hamilton's tough-minded memoir, hyped as the best chef book since Anthony Bourdam s Kitchen Confidential, delivers. Unlike Bourdain, Hamilton, the chef of New York City's Prune, doesn't provide a kitchen expose; BB&B is too personal for that. From a beautifully rendered rural girlhood that ends with a catastrophic divorce to the pains of corrupt waitresshood and the joys of chefhood, the book makes Hamilton as real to us as someone we've known all our lives and captures the essence of contemporary cool on the plate.
