Funny how things change. Read some of the posts from a few years back regarding this book. It caused some very heated discussions when it first came out. Lots of people against it or didn't believe a lot of the stories, or didn't want to believe. Time has kind of mellowed the impact this book has had, and I find most people now enjoy the book.

my first real kitchen job was at this yacht club and the chef had a copy he loaned me , i tore through it in a day and it really turned me on to cooking for a living maybe it was that i was just 17 and impressionable but it did indeed make me more passionate about this whole industry because i kinda thought it was just where I was working that was like that. Ive bought and given away probably a dozen copies of this book in my life, recommended reading for sure

i have an audio book of it, which is basicly the book read by tony on a large collection of mp3s.
i might be able to upload it for those of you who don't have time to read it.

personally, i loved it.
i'm a musician, along with being a line cook.
i love reading rock star autobiographys (the dirt, slash's book, lemmy's book, ac/dc has a good one, etc), and this book really read exactly the same way.
sex, drugs, and cooking.
