1. Kitchen Confidential : Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly Kitchen Confidential : Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly
from Bloomsbury Publishing, Limited

Customer Review:
It has been over 20 years since I worked in the restaurant business, but reading Bourdain's book brought back a lot of memories of what the business and the many characters who inhabit it are like. I found Bourdain's book to be very entertaining and reflects much of what I remember about the world... more info

2. Under Pressure: Cooking Sous Vide Under Pressure: Cooking Sous Vide
from Artisan
Price: $47.25

Customer Review:
I will add my voice to support both the pro and con choruses I read here-it is the best book on the subject yet published, and also quite intimidating in many aspects. It's not clear whether the Keller community had a marketing focus at all-this book is too cumbersome and artsy for the professional... more info

3. Zagat 2009 New York City Restaurants (Zagatsurvey: New York City Restaurants) Zagat 2009 New York City Restaurants (Zagatsurvey: New York City Restaurants)
from Zagat Survey
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
The Zagat guide is as important as a map in New York City, where there is a restaurant in almost every storefront or building (and it includes a very nice map as well although I could not get it to tear out). The information is very accurate and up to date, although I did find there were some errors... more info

4. Fast Food Nation Fast Food Nation
from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Fast Food Nation is a fine "Social Thriller" bringing you to the edge of your seat right from beginning till the end.
If "Erin Brockowich" is for P&G, then "Fast Food Nation" is for MacDonald's.Author has not spared a single stone unturned to make this book an "encyclopedia" of fast food... more info

from Artisan

Customer Review:
What a great book. The photos of the food are amazing. Just mouth watering...
I loved reading this book! There's so much wonderful and interesting information in it. For example, one part goes over the actual cost of some food items in the restaurant. It helped because it gave me an idea of the... more info

7. The Silver Palate Cookbook The Silver Palate Cookbook
from Workman Publishing Company

Customer Review:
I first bought a copy of this cookbook for my mom, then one for myself, and now one for a friend. It's a great intro to "american" cooking and entertaining. My best find in this book: the curried butternut squash soup (which I'd never had before), and I love the sesame ham-and-cheese bites! Only... more info

Customer Review:
PUH-LEASE! Spare me the all too predictable story line. Educated yuppie loses high powered job- obtains employment at retail foodservice (in this case, coffee) outlet- learns to appreciate and live like the 'wage slave' schlubs. GIVE ME A BREAK! Anyone in their right mind, who has worked long and... more info

from Scribner
Price: $17.16

Customer Review:
This is a superb first hand account of the event that shook the wine world and turned it upside down; California wines came out on top and the wine world has never been the same since. This book is much more than a story about the event, it is a mini-history of California wine making, from the... more info
