This series examines a wide array of professions; each book goes behind the scenes and on the job with a professional in a particular field. These books provide a glimpse of some of the projects, challenges, and rewards of a job on a day-to-day basis.
Humor and true stories abound in this lively glimpse into the real world of catering. Each day presents a new challenges in this diary, and routine tasks are frequently interrupted by major snafus, irate customers, and last minute orders. Trained cooks who fantasize about owning a food service will quickly see that thinking on their feet and remaining confident of their skills will be important keys to success in this business.
Jennifer Heigl and her husband are co-owners of Zen Kitchen Catering, an organic catering business. She lives in Portland, Oregon.
