Letters to a Young Chef Daniel Boulud 9780465093427 Books Reviews
- Nicely done. I am not interested in having a restaurant so the many pages devoted to that were not useful for me but it is a great read and well written. I am always happy when a true artist and legend shares knowledge. I understand the spirit in which it was written. We need more books like this at this time in history. We really do. It reminds us to not forget that hope is real. Keep hoping and keep on keeping on toward your dreams.
- I enjoyed Daniel Boulud's story of his journey and his advice to people who want to become a chef.
Anybody can cook but it takes a dedicated person to become a professional chef. It takes years to develop the knowledge and skills. You start at the bottom and work your way up through the ranks. You have to have a thick skin to survive in the demanding, pressure cooker, chaotic environment of a busy kitchen. Anyone considering a culinary career should read this book.
Professional cooking is like a sport. It takes stamina and endurance. Those who start in grade school develop fundamentals at an earlier age than those who start in Jr High or High School. Lorenzo Cain of the Kansas City Royals did not start playing baseball until he was a sophomore in high school - a time when most kids decide baseball isn't for them. And in 2015 he helped the Royals win the World Series. Exception rather than the rule. So for those 'older' chefs who are behind the curve - bring your life experiences, work hard and become the exception! - I learned of the book is a Tastemade video about Omelettes . Malik Cheeks was given the book. I gave it as a high school graduation card; thinking it didn't cost much more than a card and wouldn't get thrown away like a card. Anyway in the moment it seemed like a genius idea.
- Chef Boulud is an idol of mine and I met him a couple of months ago in DC. He was such a nice, humble, gentleman (it didn't hurt that he bought my fiancé and myself a night-cap of cognac). It's nice to see someone so successful not lose his basic values. Letters to a young chef is essentially a diary of how hard the food industry is, written by someone who genuinely knows about the hardship of the food industry. The first few chapters may be a little intimidating, but anyone with pure moral values, passion, and a pinch of talent/creativity will love it.
- Son asked for this since he is in school for culinary arts
- Fascinating insight and advice to emerging chefs. Daniel Boulud, like his food and restaurants, is a brilliant artist. He is rooted in the French tradition but is equally eclectic, modern, and progressive. His insight and approach into the art of preparing and serving food is both mystical and practical.....I purchased this book for a friend who is contemplating becoming a chef. It is probably the best gift he will ever receive....
- If you don't know Daniel Boulud , it's about time you get to know him. He shares some great stories and adds a bit of inspiration in each. I think most chef's would love to have the respect and knowledge that Chef Boulud has, but few would share it quite the way he does. Buy and enjoy.
- I being a foodie myself have always had dreams of going to culinary school and opening up my own place. It's supposed to be easy right? Of course it isn't, but I didn't get that clear picture in my head until I read this book. Daniel Boulud really describes his experiences and advice about this industry and it really can open up your eyes. I would suggest anyone to read this book if they even have some slight interest in professional cooking or even home cooking. It's a pretty fun read and I went through the book in one afternoon.
