In this raucous new anthology, thirty of the world's greatest chefs relate outrageous true tales from their kitchens. From hiring a blind cook to butting heads with a crazed chef to witnessing security guards attacking hungry customers, these behind-the-scenes accounts are as wildly entertaining as they are revealing.
A delicious reminder that even the chefs we most admire aren't always perfect, Don't Try This At Home is a must-have for anyone who loves food - or the men and women who masterfully prepare it.
