This week's challenge is brought to you by Barb.
My book is Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly by Anthony BourdainI love this book...couldn't put it down, and it's changed how I think about eating in restaurants and the people who work behind the scenes.
Description of the book:
After 25 years of sex, drugs, bad behaviour and haute cuisine, chef and novelist Anthony Bourdain has decided to tell all. From his first oyster in the Gironde to his lowly position as a dishwasher in a honky-tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown (where he first experienced the real delights of being a chef); from the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop the Rockefeller Center to drug dealers in the East Village; from Tokyo to Paris and back to New York again, Bourdain's tales of the kitchen are passionate and unpredictable, shocking and very funny. This book will change the way you view restaurants — for ever.
- Use some black and white with yellow as an accent color, like the book cover (see attached)
- Use two different fonts or alphabets
- Have you ever worked in a restaurant? Tell us about it!
- Have you ever worked for a difficult boss, or with unruly co-workers? Tell us about it!
- Do you like to cook or do you hate cooking? Either way, tell us about it!
- Chef Bourdain's love for food and cooking was ignighted when his family spent a summer in France when he was a teenager. That trip changed his life forever. Have you ever gone anywhere that changed your life forever? Tell us about it!
- Did you ever have a bad experience with food and find that you can't eat it anymore? Tell us about it!
Here's what our team came up with:
To participate, just create any paper-crafted item -- a layout (digital, hybrid, or traditional), a card, an altered item, or home decor item using the challenge above. Post a link to your project in the credits, and make sure to share any thoughts about the novel as well. We'll have a new challenge up on August 9, 2010. Thanks for playing along!
