Publisher's Synopsis
We Speak Kitchen Here is the behind-the-scenes daily life of the chefs in the kitchens of Liam Tomlin's restaurants. Each of the five Western Cape-based restaurants has its own story about partnerships, staff, recipes, growth and patrons. Essentially, We Speak Kitchen Here is a cookbook without the usual standard images of ready-plated dishes as it focuses more on the flow of dishes being prepared from concept to delivery. The aim is to give the reader an understanding of the daily life and running of a fine dining establishment and what it takes to create the dishes and operate a successful restaurant. It features 100 basic recipes for any chef in the industry or enthusiastic cook to create. Restaurants featured are Chefs Warehouse & Canteen on Bree, Chefs Warehouse Beau Constantia, Thali, Chefs Warehouse Maison, and Jewells at the Spice Route. It makes a wonderful keepsake for anyone interested in food, and the business of hospitality.
