This is a book about food and the people who work relentlessly hard every day to produce wonderful dishes to nourish us. It is a homage to those in hospitality. It is written from the perspective of Olivia the patron chef and her husband Josh, as they try and build their restaurant in challenging times. Restaurants face a glare of attention in our modern world, where everyone has an opinion. In pursuit of clicks and giggles. Where good reviews are enjoyed, and bad reviews are adored with voyeuristic glee. It ebbs and flows with social commentary on the changing of the guard. A titanic inter-generational battle between old school print critics holding on to their power by their fingernails. Under attack from the new wave of social media disruptors, bursting with youthful vigour and visual vibrancy. Who has the moral high ground in the murky business of restaurant critics. As the battle escalates, a redemption dinner is proposed. An opportunity to break bread and broker peace.
