Rebel Chef: In Search of What Matters by Dominique Crenn, Emma Brockes
3.0
3.5 but rounding down because overall I felt kind of neutral about this book. I also listened to the audio book version so that may have impacted my enjoyment.
I was excited to pick up this book because I really like food culture and Dominique Crenn is a badass. This book is pretty short so it's easy to get through and Crenn has had an interesting life. Her experiences in different kitchens, especially her time in Indonesia, were insightful. The book really shines in part 3 where the reader gets to see where Crenn is now. I enjoyed learning about her commitment to food, sustainability, and activism.
In all, if you like books about chefs or short, easy reads, this is probably a book you'd enjoy.
