Cellar Rat - Hannah Selinger - książka
Brand: Little Brown
What happens when the profession you adore doesn’t reciprocate your affection? Hannah Selinger’s experience illustrates the plight of being an exemplary restaurant worker: the hallmark of success is invisibility. At the zenith of her career as a server and subsequently a sommelier at prestigious New York dining spots, Selinger discreetly ensured diners' needs were met, folding napkins during patrons’ restroom breaks and quietly slipping out after serving meals more expensive than her living expenses. Her career path brought her into contact with culinary icons such as David Chang, Bobby Flay, and Johnny Iuzzini, along with a host of other celebrated chefs from the early 2000s. This role granted her access to an exhilarating lifestyle she never anticipated, filled with opulent gatherings, exquisite tasting menus, and fine wines, akin to the enchanting portrayal in films and TV shows. Yet, invisibility comes with the caveat of being overlooked, as people behave differently when they believe they’re unobserved. In her book "Cellar Rat," Selinger narrates her ascent and subsequent descent in the restaurant trade, commencing with the local pub that ignited her passion and culminating at the renowned Hamptons establishment, Nick & Toni’s, where she served high-profile clients. Throughout, readers accompany Selinger on a poignant journey, exploring the delight of gourmet dining, the intoxicating allure and hazards of power, and the difficult decision to leave a beloved career when it ceases to fulfill.
