Great Read! Jul 30, 2010
By Wendy Slusar
This is a great read for anyone considering a life and career as a culinarian. Chef Peter really gives a great roadmap on how to achieve great success in this field and encourages all who read the book to take chances and be committed to excellence. After working closely with Chef Peter Gebauer over the past years, it was a pleasure to read the book illustrating high points in his culinary career and his travels. I was amazed at how much I learned about him and his craft by reading his book. His dedication to his profession is matched by none. As a side note, primarily from working with him, his commitment to teaching young culinarians how to be successful professionals is amazing. Thank you, Chef Peter, for sharing a little bit of your life with me and the world. It was a wonderful to read the book and follow your journey!

A very informative and interesting read Mar 30, 2010
By r.ramey
A great book full of wonderful information about the Culinary world. The author takes the reader around the world with him as he travelled working in various kitchens with interesting stories from his early beginnings to present day, where he is a very successful award winning Culinarian. There are several intreguing menus and receipes punctured throughout as well. It is an incite into the other side of a chef's world that would benefit anyone interested in entering this field as well as professionals, who will enjoy the book from a behind the scenes perspective.
