Patrick O'Connell
“It is amazing to read the story of how he came to be the chef he is―a pioneer for the industry, a believer in rural America, a supporter of local economies, and a wizard creating pure magic.” ―Chef José Andrés
The chef and founder of the Michelin-starred restaurant The Inn at Little Washington gives us an inside look at the tumultuous joys and struggles that have brought him to his special place at the intersection of Main, Middle, and Gay.
World-renowned chef Patrick O’Connell has been recognized as a pioneer of American cuisine; his internationally acclaimed restaurant in the Virginia countryside, the Inn at Little Washington, is Michelin-starred and a Relais & Châteaux hotel. Named for the three historic streets in the little town where O’Connell’s life and career have taken root, Main, Middle & Gay chronicles O’Connell’s winding journey through the rough-and-tumble restaurant world.
Growing up gay in the 1950s and working as a paperboy and a cook at a hamburger joint, O’Connell found his place with other misfits in the addictive restaurant scene, where he learned to be nimble and grew up fast while working long hours and late nights with colorful characters. He lived free-spirited on farms with friends and traveled Europe, teaching himself to cook along the way. When he opened his restaurant in an old abandoned garage, he had no idea it would grow to the heights it has achieved today.
In his first-ever memoir, O’Connell shows us the evolution that has led the Inn at Little Washington to become a global destination for foodies and travelers alike.
批評家のレビュー
"Patrick O’Connell’s Main, Middle & Gay is much more than a cook’s memoir. It is a candid, uninhibited, and honest exploration of his life… In a 50-year adventure with the Inn at Little Washington, he transformed an ordinary village restaurant into the ultimate food sanctuary, and most of it through his own personal inventiveness, vision… and exclusive genius."
—Jacques Pépin

—Will Guidara
“Each time I have the pleasure of dining at Patrick’s table, I marvel at his creativity. I’ve never had the same meal twice, never seen the same menu. And each course reflects his passion for cooking, his fierce attention to detail, his pursuit of perfection, and his genius for turning food into art. In this memoir, he finally tells his incredible story."
—John Grisham
"A masterclass in storytelling, weaving together firsthand experiences, rich characters, and profound insights. An inspiring account that not only tells a fascinating story but also teaches that life's most invaluable lessons emerge from experience, reflection, as well as from both failures and successes."
