Download or read book The Front of the House written by Dillon Wilson and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-12-08 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was first inspired to write this book after reading some of Anthony Bourdain's books, particularly Kitchen Confidential. I decided that I could write a story about the underbelly of the world of fine dining from my own perspective as a dining room manager, sommelier, and service professional. It is an autobiographic account of my own experiences, starting with when I was a teenager in high school and then detailing my first encounters in the workplace. Through trial and error, I find my true calling as a restaurateur. It is an odyssey, which describes in my own words the internal and external factors that shaped my career in the food and beverage industry. It covers four decades. During that time, there are subplots involving my friends and acquaintances, which revolve around the main theme of this book. Many social, political, and technological changes occurred, which had a direct and indirect impact on the course of this story and its ultimate conclusion. This book appeals to its readers on four different levels. It is a historical portrayal of how fashion, art, and music changed through the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties, and into the next century. It also describes some of our nation's most memorable events and tragedies as they relate to this book. It identifies with anyone who has ever held a job in the service industry or has ever wondered what it was really like. It has its share of romance and work politics, just like most jobs do. It is an informative guide for anyone interested in gastronomy and the world of eclectic beverages, in addition to exploring the wonders of the wine country from the perspective of a sommelier and service professional. Lastly, it has a moral element. It is a warning to all of the potential dangers and pitfalls of a demanding, high-pressure lifestyle surrounded by temptation, risk, and vulnerability. It is not for people with thin skins or inherent weaknesses. I have tried my best to combine all the things, which makes a book truly engaging as well as entertaining. There is humor, irony, fate, and hopefully, some valuable information for everyone to enjoy. Most of all, it's a good story!

Book excerpt: Grace Mackay thought she was normal, a little shy maybe, but no less normal than any other struggling young waitress. But she did not know about the secretive Powers world. She did not know she was the last person on earth with the DNA needed for the Powers’ survival. And she certainly did not know her newest boyfriend, Gregory, was an Anti-Powers prince who intended to break her heart and her bones in no particular order. But when she discovers that Ben, her best friend and unrequited former crush, is actually her secret Guardian with superhuman powers, Grace’s normal turns a little wacky. And when she learns that she has The Gift, the rare power to heal the injured and resurrect life with her touch, it is official - Grace is a weirdo even in the Powers world. But what freaks Grace out more than all that is the fact she has feelings for Ben again - and he has feelings for her - which makes Grace’s new normal a lot more complicated.

Download or read book Riots Of Passage written by Jason McGathey and published by Exquisite Noise Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly anticipated follow-up to his memoir "One Hundred Virgins," the author continues to document in riotous fashion life on a major college campus, in a major U.S. city. Though specifically Ohio State University and Columbus, Ohio, in a sense the particulars don't matter because such experiences, though often outrageous, are universal ones. Joined by his familiar cast of fellow reprobates, along with a healthy crop of fresh recruits, this crew closes out their final year exploring campus. If the first six months were centered around discovery, then this epoch finds them operating under the banner of refinement and expansion. As always, the journey is nothing if not wildly unpredictable, and a continual reminder that it's often best to just start running, with no end goal in sight. "If I had to describe how any of us, and certainly yours truly, ever manages to accomplish anything," McGathey observes in these passages, "I would say it runs something like this: we start down a hallway toward the object of our desire at the other end, but a rug is pulled out from under us, just about on a daily basis, before we get anywhere near it. Yet every so often, after landing on the floor, you happen to spot this secret passage in the wall that you never would have noticed otherwise. Certainly not by remaining back on the starting block. And this passage commonly leads to something as good as or even better than what you originally mapped."

Download or read book Cape Hope Mysteries Box Set 4 written by Winnie Reed and published by . This book was released on with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Funerals and Favors Let no good deed go unpunished. At least, that’s what it feels like to Darcy Harmon. She’s helping a friend out, doing a favor, delivering flowers to a funeral when one of the attendees dies on the spot. Right there at the funeral. Right in front of Darcy. She can’t let that go without investigating, can she? Especially not after attempts on her own life. If only she could get Pete to talk to her. But nope, that officer’s having nothing to do with her. What could make matters worse? Helping her mother arrange a baby shower for Emma. Not only is their mother a basket case from the arrangements, she’s also got a summer cold and can’t bake for the event. Which leaves only one option. You guessed it. Ethan. Things just got worse, didn’t they? Auctions and Alibis One simple, little auction. What could happen, right? Darcy’s got an invitation to join Ethan at an auction. No, this isn’t the date he supposedly asked her out for a while ago. This is a favor for his cousin who’s some well-known New York Times bestseller. Why not, since said author agreed to do a book signing at Darcy’s bookstore, and that’s bound to bring in more business. Not to mention that’s going to satisfy Becca’s crush on said author. What could go wrong at an auction for an old desk? Nothing, but what happens after the auction raises eyebrows. His home’s broken into and the desk’s been vandalized. And speaking of raised eyebrows, imagine Pete’s when he walks in late at night to process the crime scene and finds Darcy there. And to think after Darcy’s last adventure with the wealthy sector of Cape Hope, she’d be done with attempts on her life. No such luck. And to compound matters, it seems that Ethan’s life’s at stake as well. Can’t a girl get a break? Is it too much to hope for a simple little mystery that doesn’t involve endangering her life? Off-Season Bake-Off It should have been the perfect idea, right? A bake-off to take the pressure off Sylvia Harmon whose ex is getting remarried, thereby eliminating the pressure Emma and Darcy are under. Brilliant, or so Darcy thought. Until it became time to talk Ethan Crosby into it. Until the mayor ended up dead. Until Aunt Trixie’s accused—by the whole town!—of killing the mayor. Now Cape Hope has a mystery on its hands and Darcy simply can’t help herself. Again.

His knowledge of the Chinese language and of the differences between Chinese and Australian cultures allowed him to have a more intimate insight into the so-called inscrutable Chinese thinking.
