Overview

"Ever since I was a toddler and learned how to crawl, I would enter the kitchen.... I would pull open drawers and search through the cabinets."
- Peter C. Brenner.
Not everyone finds their passion early in life. But as a child, Peter loved exploring new things, and one day he found his mother cooking a delicious meal in the kitchen. That's when he decided to become a world class Chef.
So, what is it like to be a Chef at a star-rated hotel? Certainly nothing less than a messy adventure! MESSY for real.
As you read through the book, you will find Peter's dramatic life taking various turns as he tries to steer clear of turbulent times. However, life as a Chef is never easy and he is not able to set his feet on the ground for a long time.
Once he does, life challenges him to let go of the comfort and instead pursue his lifelong idea of opening his own restaurant. That's some risky business! Will he be able to do it?
Read through the pages as you find Peter breezing through his life as a successful chef and introducing some recipes that hardly anyone in America has ever heard of.
