Haute cuisine
6.99 €
Ottavia is the daughter of a famous Roman chef. Since childhood, watching her father, she dreams of proving herself in cooking, a natively female craft, in which men dominate for not the first century. Bright and decisive, she goes to her goal, improving in skill, learns the power of passion and the bitterness of parting. Years pass and Ottavia is the owner of a successful restaurant, wife and mother. The dream came true, but suddenly the past reminds itself.

Jules Kerninon tells the story of a strong woman in search of herself. Her novel is a frank conversation about relationships, family, destiny and, of course, about the magic of haute cuisine, which becomes for the heroine and passion, and meaning, and salvation. She immerses us in the atmosphere of Italy, where food is art and art is life itself. Ottavia’s dishes, like the pages of her life, are full of hope, often despair, but always love.
