Must Read
For a book lover, there is no greater joy than finding a book that engages you and keeps you hooked till the last page. “The Devil in the Kitchen” an autobiography of the original legend of the British kitchen “Marco Pierre White” was that book for me.It is a fabulous insight into the mind of a man who became the youngest chef in Britain to win 3 Michelin stars by the age of 33, without any formal training. It is amazing to read how passion can drive people to achieve greatness and in that quest how it can also destroy them and the relationships that they build. The justifications that he has given for playing such a hardball with his staff and the press gives you a glimpse into what it takes to be what he was. It shows how complicated, hard and competitive the world of a chef is and the constant need to keep on top of your game and churn out meals that win you accolades. The book showcases him as a driven ambitious scoundrel who sacrificed everything to get what he wanted. He isn’t scared to drops names, talk about his friendships and fights with celebrities. And invariably mentions the bollocking that he gave to his 3 protegees “Gordon Ramsay, Heston Mario Batali and Heston Blumenthal, who went on to, became great chefs themselves. This book is an excellent read for someone who wants to make a career out of becoming a real chef in the kitchen and not a celebrity TV chef.
