Bill Buford wrote an amazing book called ‘Heat.’ He had a dream job writing and editing for The New Yorker and decided to do a piece on Mario Batali. This lead to a life changing experience for Buford where he ended up falling in love with the lifestyle of chefs and restaurant folk. The full title for the book is “Heat: an amateur’s adventures as kitchen slave, line cook, pasta maker, and apprentice to a Dante-quoting butcher in Tuscany” which is a perfect way to describe the book. He traveled the world working and learning about food and his book has become a staple for anyone who is remotely interested in food. His latest project is a BBC television show where he is traveling around France learning about French Cuisine.
