Northshire Bookstore Review(s)

Reviewed By... Liz Barnum

Being a bookseller by day and a waiter by night, I enjoyed The Waiter Rant: Thanks for the Tip by The Waiter on many different levels. It is fast-paced, funny and so very true! The author runs a weblog, www.waiterrant.com.

Publisher Comments

“…here is my unabashed recommendation: If you eat out with any regularity, read this book!”

“Lucky for the reader, The Waiter has kept his eyes open and is willing to gossip about what he has seen from the other side of the menu.”

“…funny and touching.”

“Waiter Rant has all the fixings for fun....What Anthony Bourdain’s tell-all about life in the kitchen did for Hollandaise sauce, Waiter Rant will do for side salads.”

“For enlightenment on how to handle such situations, I reached out to The Waiter. You know, the New York City-based guy who created the wildly entertaining Waiter Rant blog, which is now a cannot-put-it-down book.”

“Anyone that has ever eaten in a restaurant is going to want to grab [this book].”

“The main attraction here is [Dublanica’s] acerbic, biting and often hilarious accounts of life behind the scenes at the front of the house.”

The front-of-the-house version of Kitchen Confidential; a painfully funny, excruciatingly true-life account of the waiter’s life. As useful as it is entertaining.

“Writing a best-seller is a big deal, and the Waiter deserves a 20% tip for serving up such a fun summer read.”

“Fortunately, The Waiter (who has since outed himself as a chap called Steve Dublanica) does more in this book than get even; he provides thoughtful insights into how the restaurant business works.”

“…amusing and informative…along with the stories, some of which are hilarious, Dublanica provides useful advice for the customer...Waiter Rant is as delightful as it is irreverent.”

“Extremely funny, no-nonsense and insightful.”
