This well-written book was an opportunity to see a world I've never considered. I'm not a serious fine-diner, but it was fascinating to learn about the underbelly of that world and to experience through the life and stories of a smart, interesting woman whose passion for wine and food comes through beautifully in her writing. While the emphasis was on the restaurant experience, I also found the author's relationship with her family, particularly her father captivating. I'm sure if you are a fan of celebrity chefs, this book would be a fascinating read.

An insiders prospective of what it is like to be in the restaurant business as a wine expert. She tells her story the good, the bad and the ugly. I found this book to be honest and very entertaining and makes you appreciate seeing a side of the wine industry as a reader.

In the style of "Sweetbitter", Hannah recounts her time working in the fine dining restaurants of NYC. What is most obvious is her dismissal, denegration, and total lack of care or support in that world. It sounds like a horrific place for young people trying to make their way in the restaurant industry.. Plenty of nuggets of celebrity hype and afterwork hyjinks. I hope this book gets attention from TPTB in exposing the cruel and Misogynistic politics of the restaurant industry. Brava!
