Jeff
Gordinier
met
René
Redzepi,
the
Danish
chef
whose
restaurant,
Noma,
has
been
repeatedly
voted
the
best
in
the
world.
A
restless
perfectionist,
Redzepi
was
at
the
top
of
his
game
but
looking
to
shutter
his
restaurant
and
set
out
for
new
places,
flavours
and
recipes.
This
is
the
story
of
their
four-year
culinary
adventure.
In
the
Yucatán
jungle,
Redzepi
and
Gordinier
seek
the
perfect
taco
and
the
secrets
of
molé.
On
idyllic
Sydney
beaches,
they
forage
for
sea
rocket
and
wild
celery.
On
a
boat
in
the
Arctic
Circle,
a
lone
fisherman
guides
them
to
-
perhaps
-
the
world’s
finest
sea
urchins.
Back
in
Copenhagen,
Redzepi
plans
the
resurrection
of
his
restaurant
on
the
unlikely
site
of
a
garbage-filled
empty
lot.
Hungryis
a
memoir,
a
travelogue,
a
portrait
of
a
chef,
and
a
chronicle
of
the
moment
when
daredevil
cooking
became
the
most
exciting
and
groundbreaking
form
of
artistry.

Recenzii
'This
smorgasbord
of
a
tale
will
have
travelers
tasting
every
meal
with
renewed
appreciation.'
'If you want to understand modern restaurant culture, you need to read this book. Gordinier takes us into the fabulously obsessive world of the world’s most fascinating chef—and he does it with the voice of a poet. You will remember this every time you go out to eat.'
'This wonderful book is really about the adventures of two men: a great chef and a great journalist. Hungry is a feast for the senses, filled with complex passion and joy, bursting with life. Not only did Jeff Gordinier make me want to jump on the next flight (to Mexico, Copenhagen, Sydney) in search of the perfect meal, but he also reminded me to stop and savor the ride.'
'Hungry is a pithy, fluid, rollicking book that’s somehow simultaneously visceral and cerebral, funny and heartfelt, passionate and badass, brilliant and unpretentious—Gordinier takes us along with him on a madcap global odyssey on the heels of a megalomaniacal genius of a chef as he relentlessly pushes the boundaries of food. This is a book about invention and reinvention—of food, ideas, place, and ultimately the self. It’s immensely fun to read as well as profound. I loved every word.'
'A piece of writing as breathless and as urgent as its subject. Wonderful all-in, full-on story telling. I read as I might eat a meal when I’m really, really hungry: all in one sitting.'
'Follow along on an incredible journey across the globe with the world’s greatest chef, described with equal parts humor and brilliance by one of the greatest food writers of our generation, as they go to enormous lengths in search of the rarest morsels of flavor in an imperfect world. In these pages, you will find that rare glimpse into the mind of a restless and enigmatic genius who has forever changed how we look at the world of fine dining.'
'For the curious culinary traveler and food-industry insider, this will become mandatory reading. With rich, compelling detail, the story traces René Redzepi’s path to carving out his own radical space in modern cooking, but what’s most wonderful about this book is the heartfelt parallel story—the story of Gordinier’s own personal evolution, following the chef around the world and finding himself forever changed.'
'In Hungry, we have a remarkable portrait of Redzepi, the genius behind “the world’s best restaurant.” We also have a remarkable portrait of Gordinier, a wise and reflective digester of Redzepi’s relentless creativity. Armed with a deep metaphorical gift, a gonzo enthusiasm, and a “palate quivering like a trampoline,” Gordinier hurdles us across the globe along with Redzepi and his merry pranksters in search of, among other things, a Mexican mole sauce “like an epic poem about history and time.” And that’s what this memoir is, as well. Hungry is a book to be cherished not just by anyone who’s dreamed of eating at Noma, but by anyone who’s ever had a dream.'
'InHungry, Gordinier invokes such playful and lush prose that the scents of mole, chiles and even lingonberry juice waft off the page.'
