THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER – WITH A NEW CHAPTER!

‘An instant, hedonistic culinary classic’ The London Standard

****

‘It’s the two best things in the world: food and sex’

Slutty Cheff is an anonymous London chef who knows what it’s really like to work in the capital’s hectic restaurant scene.

From working sixty-hour weeks in windowless kitchens and being the only woman in the changing room to the pure thrill of a busy service, falling in love with other chefs and cycling home through a city bubbling over with potential, Slutty Cheff’s misadventures in food and sex are about experiencing and embracing life to the fullest. The pleasure and the chaos included . . .

An exquisite broth of raw Anthony Bourdain-style honesty with a pinch of the sharp wit of Lena Dunham’s Girls, Tart Is THE book for those who like to eat and f**k.

Publisher Review

I devoured this book like a ravenous customer and I love it wildly. It's the most visceral food and sex writing out there - utterly delicious and utterly new. -- Lena Dunham A young Anthony Bourdain which we haven't seen in female food writing before - visceral, hedonistic and gutsy -- Dolly Alderton A startlingly gripping and funny glimpse into what goes on behind the kitchen doors, with sauce of all kinds oozing from every page. Deft and confident writing as sharp as a chef's knife that made me gasp, laugh and blush all at the same time. In another imagined life, I am a chef and this book made me yearn for that and simultaneously very glad that I'm not. -- Ed Gamble Slutty Cheff is an exhilarating new voice, as spiky and eye-opening as Fernet Branca. And her book is one great sweaty, sweary, sexy ride. -- Marina O'Loughlin I don't know whether to be hungry or horny - I absolutely inhaled this book either way. -- Angela Hui
