Feeling stuck in his work and home life, writer Jeff Gordinier happened into a fateful meeting with Danish chef Ren  Redzepi, whose restaurant, Noma, has been called the best in the world. A restless perfectionist, Redzepi was at the top of his game but was looking to tear it all down, to shutter his restaurant and set out for new places, flavors, and recipes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is the story of the subsequent four years of globe-trotting culinary adventure, with Gordinier joining Redzepi as his Sancho Panza. In the jungle of the Yucat n peninsula, Redzepi and his comrades go off-road in search of the perfect taco. In Sydney, they forage for sea rocket and sandpaper figs in suburban parks and on surf-lashed beaches. On a boat in the Arctic Circle, a lone fisherman guides them to what may or may not be his secret cache of the world's finest sea urchins. And back in Copenhagen, the quiet canal-lined city where Redzepi started it all, he plans the resurrection of his restaurant on the unlikely site of a garbage-filled lot. Along the way, readers meet Redzepi's merry band of friends and collaborators, including acclaimed chefs such as Danny Bowien, Kylie Kwong, Rosio S nchez, David Chang, and Enrique Olvera.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHungry\u003c\/i\u003e is a memoir, a travelogue, a portrait of a chef, and a chronicle of the moment when daredevil cooking became the most exciting and groundbreaking form of artistry. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eHungry\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"In \u003ci\u003eHungry, \u003c\/i\u003e Gordinier invokes such playful and lush prose that the scents of mole, chiles and even lingonberry juice waft off the page.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"This wonderful book is really about the adventures of \u003ci\u003etwo\u003c\/i\u003e men: a great chef and a great journalist. \u003ci\u003eHungry\u003c\/i\u003e is a feast for the senses, filled with complex passion and joy, bursting with life.
