Don't Try This at Home: Culinary Catastrophes from the World's Greatest Cooks and Chefs by Kimberly Witherspoon

A delicious reminder that even the chefs we most admire aren't always perfect, Don't Try This at Home is a must-have for anyone who loves food - or the men and women who masterfully prepare it.
