In an era of âtxt msgs,'Chalmers' Great Food Jobs 2is refreshingly erudite, urbane, wry, witty,and consummately British. This sparkling, extraordinary compendium will astonish and amuse, inform and make you laugh out loud!
Reviews / Votes
Open wide: Irena Chalmers' serves up more appetizing options for a life in food. If I'd had this book years ago, I would have made food my first career (instead of switching to it later). But as this book shows, it's never too late. It's inspiring to see people making a living from food--in so many new, creative ways. A must-read for anyone wanting to meld food-passion with work. Even if you don't work in the food industry now, this book may inspire you to make that long-dreamed of career-change--or not. A comprehensive overview like this is a great tool for gauging what's right for you. Great Food Jobs 2 is like having a food-career counselor in the palm of your hands. No one knows more than Irena Chalmers about the working world of food, and she spotlights both traditional and new opportunities for raising food passion to a professional level. Brava! -- Kate Heyhoe, Executive Editor, Global GourmetMore details
