Reviews
"Selinger's vivid prose makes each chapter compulsively readable as she tells her story of life in restaurants."-- Booklist, "In Cellar Rat , Hannah Selinger chronicles a time when chefs were thought to be rock stars and dining out was a show--but she tells the truth of living strange hours, dealing with misogyny, and encountering rage in an industry that never loves its workers back. Yet beauty is woven throughout, in prose that mimics the propulsive energy of a busy shift." -- Alicia Kennedy, author of No Meat Required, "Required reading not only for those curious about restaurant work but for anyone who loves dining out in restaurants (especially fine dining). It is a must-read for anyone who wants a behind-the-scenes, name-drop, tell-all tale of New York City's fine dining restaurants and worthy of adding to your bookshelf if you appreciate biting prose and emotionally cutting memoirs."-- Hippocampus, "If you're going to write about the reality of working in restaurants in a way that's anywhere near accurate, you need two things: The courage to burn bridges and keen social observation skills and the ability to translate those into engaging prose. Hannah Selinger has both, as she demonstrates with finesse, humor, and sensitivity in Cellar Rat . I admire her commitment to truth-telling as much as I do her appreciation for the seemingly trivial but ultimately revealing details that are necessary for capturing the glamor, decadence, volatility, and abusiveness that define the dining industry."-- Charlotte Druckman, author of Women on Food, "A brutally honest, courageous, and powerful personal look into the dark side of the restaurant world. Hannah shows us how the imbalance of power rests on a manipulative system that willfully neglects the people it employs and makes you question if the industry truly can and wants to change for the better."-- Nik Sharma, Author of Veg-Table and The Flavor Equation, "With unflinching candor and clear-eyed wisdom, Hannah Selinger compresses the thrill, toxicity, and terror of working in restaurants into a remarkably open-hearted memoir. Cellar Rat should be essential reading for anyone who cares about this industry and the people who keep it running."-- Mayukh Sen, author of Taste Makers

Synopsis
Town & Country 's Best Books of Spring 2025 Kirkus Reviews's Most Anticipated Nonfiction of Spring 2025 Amazon's Best Books of the Month American Writers Museum's Staff Picks What happens when a career you love doesn't love you back? As Hannah Selinger will tell you, to be a good restaurant employee is to be invisible. At the height of her career as a server and then sommelier at some of New York's most famed dining institutions, Selinger was the hand that folded your napkin while you were in the bathroom, the employee silently slipping into the night through a side door after serving meals worth more than her rent. During her tenure, Selinger rubbed shoulders with David Chang, Bobby Flay, Johnny Iuzzini, and countless other food celebrities of the early 2000's. Her position allowed her access to a life she never expected; the lavish parties, the tasting courses, the wildly expensive wines - the rare world we see romanticized in countless movies and television shows. But the thing about being invisible is that people forget you're there, and most act differently when they think no one is looking. In Cellar Rat , Selinger chronicles her rise and fall in the restaurant business, beginning with the gritty hometown pub where she fell in love with the industry and ending with her final post serving celebrities at the Hamptons classic Nick & Toni's. In between, readers will join Selinger on her emotional journey as she learns the joys of fine fine dining, the allure and danger of power, and what it takes to walk away from a career you love when it no longer serves you.

    The textbook was better than described. It looks like brand new! The price was appropriate for the type of textbook that it is. The appearance and quality of the textbook was impeccable. The shipping took about 2 weeks to arrive, but the textbook was well worth the wait. Seller packaged my textbook beautifully which ensured that it arrived unharmed and in perfect condition. Excellent seller! I would purchase more items from this seller in the future!
