Then, disaster struck. As a global pandemic threw the restaurant business into chaos, Jen’s husband Roland suffered a catastrophic stroke. In her new memoir, Jen uses her characteristic blend of humour and raw honesty to capture what it felt like to rethink everything just when she thought it was all working out as she’d planned.This book makes you understand what her friend Anthony Bourdain loved about her—her singular combination of wry humor, unflinching honesty, and real depth. Readers will love the book for its painful rendering of what it’s like to care for a loved one through a health nightmare, its witty analysis of restaurant culture, and its insights into building a business on your own terms.
