The Savoy Boy: Mise en Place (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781739677107)

Michael Moore is a celebrity chef and a food and wine consultant to businesses across the globe, but for him everything started at The Savoy.

As one of nine children born to West Indian parents living in the East End of London, life was not easy. He lied about his age in order to get his first job and funded his own way through catering school with two jobs working long hours. His dream was to work at 'the best hotel in the world'.

Once he got the famed jacket, the hard work started. Long hours, the demands of a busy kitchen and being one of only a few black chefs took their toll. But these were balanced with highs such as meeting the Queen Mum, cooking for Liza Minnelli and working with the best ingredients on the planet.

Michael's story is truthful and captivating. He tells it with humour and wit, giving an

insight into the experiences that shaped him and the people who influenced him.

Through his words, he will inspire you to find your dreams, enjoy every adventure and work hard for your success.

This is Michael Moore's fascinating story of how he became a Savoy Boy.
