Burnt! Food, Feuds and Failures

Restaurant owner turned author Steve Barton has published Burnt! Food, Feuds and Failures with Spire Publishing. The book chronicles Steve's adventures whilst opening and running a restaurant in the Lake District. Here's what he has to say about the experience:

“And the winner of Master Chef Goes Large is….”
After a disappointing un-televised and un-glamorous damp day filming at a Birmingham Travel Lodge, Steve Barton was booted out of this popular BBC cooking competition.
 
Undaunted by this minor setback, he turned his back on the bustle of the city he loved to open an idyllic riverside restaurant in the calms of the Lake District. 
 
Burnt is for anyone who has ever dreamed of owning or running their own restaurant. A stark tale of hiring’s and firings, evil landlords, scrapping lesbians, swingers, marriage, devastating floods and a flirt with bankruptcy.
 
If you have ever dreamt of owning or running a restaurant you really ought to read this cautionary tale first. Then again, perhaps you shouldn't....
"Just remember one thing; sometimes your dreams can keep you awake at night"
