Talk: "Heat: an Amateurs Adventures as a Kitchen Slave..." (Non-fiction)

Details

Join the Men-Who-Read group for our monthly meetup. Engage in thought-provoking conversations with like-minded members. This month's book selection is the culinary memoir "Heat: An Amateur's Adventures as Kitchen Slave, Line Cook, Pasta-Maker, and Apprentice to a Dante-Quoting Butcher in Tuscany" by Bill Buford.

“A delicious history of Italian cooking, with a twist: Buford, an amateur cook, entered the kitchen of one of New York City’s hottest restaurants as a full-time employee, and [gives] us a story of Italian cuisine through the many characters . . . who prepare it, serve it, and eat it.” —GQ
