What to expect

‘It’s the two best things in the world: food and sex.’

Slutty Cheff is an anonymous London chef who knows what it’s really like to work in the capital's hectic restaurant scene.

From working sixty-hour weeks in windowless kitchens and being the only woman in the changing room to the pure thrill of a busy service, falling in love with other chefs and cycling home through a city bubbling over with potential, Slutty Cheff’s misadventures in food and sex are about experiencing and embracing life to the fullest. The pleasure and the chaos included . . .

An exquisite broth of raw Anthony Bourdain-style honesty with a pinch of the sharp wit of Lena Dunham’s Girls, Tart Is THE book for those who like to eat and f**k.

‘I devoured this book like a ravenous customer and I love it wildly. It’s the most visceral food and sex writing out there – utterly delicious and utterly new.’ Lena Dunham

‘A young Anthony Bourdain which we haven’t seen in female food writing before – visceral, hedonistic and gutsy.’ Dolly Alderton

Critics Review

Slutty Cheff is an exhilarating new voice, as spiky and eye-opening as Fernet Branca. And her book is one great sweaty, sweary, sexy ride.

Marina O'Loughlin

Tart superbly captures the emotional rollercoaster of the professional kitchen world, I feel very well represented as a female chef.

Stroma Sinclair

I don’t know whether to be hungry or horny — I absolutely inhaled this book either way.

Angela Hui

Essential reading on chef life and London’s food scene from, I am sure, the new generation’s Bourdain.

Mandy Yin

Tart is perfect. It’s reminded me that, even though I’ve questioned my choice of working in kitchens after many tough shifts, I’ll never leave the industry because it’s where I feel at home.
