After retiring from the restaurant industry, everyone told me I should write a book about all of my crazy experiences coming up as a chef in Europe and the US.
I went into chef apprenticeship in Germany at age 14 and finished at age 17 with job offers around the world. I eventually cooked my way to the United States. I have always done things my own way, and this frequently led me into trouble, adventure, or both. The details of those are found in my memoir.
I hope you enjoy it!
Whether you are looking for true tales from a man too talented and too crazy for his own good, or need to know how to run a successful restaurant into the ground, look no further than this book.
Come on in, to a place where the food is exceptional, the chef is clearly (and profanely) audible, and "the customer is always wrong."
