The chef of a wild and wildly popular group of sandwich shops takes you inside his wonderfully off-kilter mind: a place where bread, condiments, vegetables, and meats mingle in delicious, unexpected recipes and where his raves, rants, jokes, and stories run free. Tyler Kord is chef-owner of the expanding duchy of the lauded No. 7 restaurant and four No. 7 Sub shops in New York. He is also a terrifically neurotic man who directs his energy into writing fall-down-funny stories and rants about sandwich philosophy, love, self-loathing, Lil Wayne, Tom Cruise, and the life of a chef. Most of these stories also happen to be truly excellent recipes in this convention-breaking cookbook. Come for the laughs, stay for the roast beef sub with fried shallots and smoked French dressing.
