"In the five years since Carrie Solomon and Adrian Moore's book Inside Chefs' Fridges was released, the collective fascination with the world's leading culinary personalities has only intensified. Through dynamic photography, interviews and improvised recipes, the fully stocked sequel, Chefs' Fridges, illustrates how the contents of a fridge reveal its owner's character...peeking inside the larders of beloved food figures feels all the more compelling." - T: The New York Times Style Magazine"What do chefs cook when there's no critic or consumer watching?

"A fridge is a window into one's soul: a tell-all about one's idiosyncrasies, affinities and whims. In Chefs' Fridges, leading US restaurateurs from coast to coast open their aluminium doors. As they spill their culinary secrets and wax poetic about arcane ingredients, these masterful visionaries reveal their guilty pleasures and home-cooking philosophies." - C Magazine
"When Chefs' Fridges showed up, my afternoon was planned! And while I'm curious that Carla Hall likes Koeze's Cream-Nut peanut butter, or that Anthony Rose uses Soom tahini, what is taking me down an internet rabbit hole are the plastic containers meticulously labeled with various colors of painters tape, the mysterious homemade concoctions that these pros keep in weekly rotation." - Porchlight Book Blog
