A Man, a Woman, a Restaurant, a Marriage
by Molly Wizenberg
With 12 books under her belt – last number I could find, a home cook and with a successful award-winning long-term blog, Molly Wizenberg can be described as a success.
A Man, a Woman, a Restaurant, a Marrrige is the first book I’ve read of Molly Wizenberg, and I wasn’t really at any speed to get to grips with it, but I quite enjoyed it.
It’s fairly funny memoir of Mollys life as she journeys toward opening a restaurant with her husband.
The dream of a restaurant is her husbands, Brandon Pettit, a composer and dreamer. The journey to the opening sparks the first crisis in their marriage.
Not believing that the pizza restaurant would ever open, never mind become successful, Molly goes along with it until she realises, she’s not being honest with herself.
Each chapter has one of Molly’s recipes, a range of reliable dishes chefs at home like to eat when they get off work.
Molly was interested in people and used home cooking as a way to peep into the lives of others which started her blog, Orangette, she used this and her books as a way of exploring stages and thoughts in her own life too.
She has written for copious magazines such as Bon Appétit and Saveur. Been on the New York bestseller list and in 2015 she won the James Beard Award for her blog.
Molly is also co – host of Spilled Milk, a food and comedy podcast with her friend Matthew Amster-Burton.
I’ll give this book a 2.5 egg rating.
