This came across as a suggestion and figured I would give it a listen. I have been a chef since 1999 and opened my first of three restaurants in 2006 just for a little background. This book is humorous and fairly on point. While a disagree with a few items overall this is an excellent start for someone who has either never been in the industry (which I suggest at least getting your hands dirty before jumping in to the industry) or someone who has only been a frontline worker. For someone that has experience it will be a fun listen in general.

DECENT OVERVIEW

Seems like good reference material. If you can internalize and implement every point made in this book, you'd probably be off to a good start. Some of the advice may only apply to certain kinds of restaurants (the book seems to focus on slightly "higher end" restaurants), but most of the fundamentals presented would apply to many restaurants.

Probably not the best book to just read/through, and it'd be better consumed as needed, but overall good quality and worth the time.

Pretty thorough
