In this warm, illustrated memoir, Rachel Khoo reflects on the years that took her from a secure London office job to a Bastille bedsit, and ultimately to finding her voice in food in Paris. Written with humour and heart, the book charts her early adult life as a young Brit abroad, navigating independence, ambition and creativity in a city far from home. Drawing on her British, Chinese-Malaysian and Austrian heritage, Rachel offers a layered and personal portrait of Paris in the noughties, far removed from postcard clichés. She captures the everyday realities of life in the city, from cultural missteps and moments of wonder to the friendships, fashions and food obsessions that shaped her experience. Along the way, she studies at culinary school, experiments in the kitchen, and supports her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
