Yes, Chef by Marcus Samuelsson
adventurous
informative
reflective
medium-paced
4.0
This has me thinking about
Cultural combinations
The complicity of adoption
Kitchen culture
How I should probably believe a person is a jerk if they play one on a reality show
Which reality shows I find "relaxing" and why
Westernization as connects to cultural appropriation
Or as living of dual identities.
What makes "better" food.
Gentrification.
Other things I've read/looked at related to this

The author loses a couple of friends without warning, including in a car crash. There's a lot of emotionally unhealthy systems in the kitchen and there's imperialism.
