Consider Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain. Recommended by 4 sources.
“Reading is like eavesdropping on a profanity-laced confessional from a seasoned chef: fast, bracing, and full of vivid set-piece scenes about kitchens, drugs, sex, and the small cruelties of restaurant life. Most useful are the tactical portraits of how restaurants run, the hierarchy and rhythms that make service work, rendered with blunt wit. Limiting: voice can feel self-indulgent and macho; anecdotes repeat similar beats, so novelty wears thin by the back half. Best read in chunks or as a binge for maximum momentum.”
