Reviews

'Growing numbers of chefs from the culinary periphery are now “talking back” to the supposed center of the restaurant world, questioning the primacy of traditional status hierarchies. Using fine dining in global cities like NYC and London as its focus, this book offers an important contribution to the ongoing -- and often heated -- debates on globalization, coloniality, and appropriation in the field of gastronomy as a material practice. Through interviews and the analysis of a variety of sources, the authors highlight the individual agency of chefs and other actors that so far have frequently been depicted as the mere victims of cultural domination.' - Fabio Parasecoli, New York University 'This theoretically-engaged and innovative study of reverse cultural globalization in the up-market restaurant trade of London and New York explains persuasively how the reputations of ever more diverse foreign cuisines get promoted.' - Alan Warde, University of Manchester 'Growing numbers of chefs from the culinary periphery are now “talking back” to the supposed center of the restaurant world, questioning the primacy of traditional status hierarchies.
