It's now way out of date but reading about the experiences of chefs in unusual situations in the world of food preparation was lots of fun.

Interesting to here the voices of so many different styles of chefs! Some were a little gross...

Wonderful, fun stories from chefs about the moments in their careers that partly or completely determined who they are.

I liked reading this book because I've worked in a couple of restaurants (though never as a cook), but I grew weary of reading about the catastrophes in story after story. I know, I know, that's what the book was all about. It says so on the title. Some of the stories had amusing endings, and I did learn a little about restaurant kitchens.
