Hungry? We've Got Your Book

I like the new editorial slant of the Minneapolis Star Tribune's book coverage. They're certainly covering a lot more local authors. Case in point is the recent excerpt of Steve Lerach's memoir Fried : Surviving Two Centuries in Restaurants.

Lerach began his career in the kitchen as a dishwasher at the Ambassador Hotel in St. Louis Park and worked his way up to run twleve kitchens at the University of Minnesota. His book blends restaurant lore with the author's own experience to give us a candid look behind the scenes of the food serving business.

Steve Lerach will be at Magers & Quinn Monday, October 6, at 7:30pm, to read from his memoir.--David E
