The kitchen saved Kathy Watson’s life.
In the midst of a recession, Kathy is running two restaurants with the passion of a gastronome who grew up on freshly farmed food—and the limitations of a chef who has little formal culinary education. That lack of training, a perceived shortcoming, has her bowing to the misogynistic egos of destructive, hot-headed chefs in her own kitchens. All the while, her fear and insecurity trigger childhood memories of physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her mother—a relationship that she can’t seem to reckon with.
Then, one day, one of Kathy’s chefs walks out just before dinner service, forcing her to face off with one of her long-held fears: sautéing on the hot side. The experience breaks the cycle wide open—and thus begins Kathy’s journey to throw off years of abuse to become a woman she can love.
Including more than thirty recipes and a wealth of kitchen drama, Last Morning at Nora’s Table will satisfy your appetite for delicious food and back-of-the-house gossip. Swing a sauté pan up to the stove and dive in.
