Preview on VarmintBites

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Raleigh food blogger, attorney, and man about town Dean McCord has written a very kind preview of “An Edge in the Kitchen” titled These are the Days of Our Knives on his blog, VarmintBites. Dean writes about dining, home cooking, family, and the Triangle’s burgeoning food movement. His cobbler recipe is also top notch. Definitely go read his preview of my book, but bookmark the site. It’s good reading.

First Review from OnlyKnives.com

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

The first review is in. The good folks at OnlyKnives.com have just posted a glowing review of An Edge in the Kitchen:

If you’ve spent any time at all researching kitchen knives, you quickly realize that there’s a lot of disinformation out there. Myths, misperceptions and outright lies abound. Chad attempts to debunk some of these myths and give you an unbiased, straight scoop on knives. . . .

Overall, the book is a great read. Chad’s got a breezy writing style and a sharp sense of humor. I doubt we’ll see a sequel or that they’ll turn it into a movie, but it’s quite entertaining nonetheless.

If you want to learn about knives, as any serious cook really should, I can recommend no better way than to check out this book. <click to see the whole review>

The only thing I object to is the dismissal of the movie idea. I often spend hours wondering who is going to play me on the big screen.
