Kitchen Con Kitchen Con, ISBN 9781845962203 and books by Trevor White on sale at thebookshelf.co.nz Trevor Whites hilarious account of life as a restaurant critic is also a social history of restaurant criticism and an expos of the restaurant business. The author reveals how diners are routinely ripped off by self–styled artists and greedy restaurateurs, while arguing that anyone can become a food critic – all you need is a pen and an appetite. This defiantly populist critique of restaurant culture redefines the dining room as a place in which humans can be greatly satisfied, rather than an artists studio. From the worlds first restaurant to the most fashionable kitchens of London, Paris and New York, KITCHEN CON is a book–length tribute to dinner but also a scathing attack on gourmet dogma. Written with style, humour and breathtaking candour, KITCHEN CON lifts the lid on the culinary cartel in a whirlwind tour of the worlds great restaurants, before turning its attention to the greatest con of all: the author himself. No one is spared in this riveting tale of life at the heart of the restaurant racket. About the AuthorTrevor White is Irelands leading food critic. He now publishes The Dubliner, a city magazine, and edited The Dubliner 100 Best Restaurants, Irelands bestselling restaurant guide 00
