  In April 2014 Mark Horrell went on a mountaineering expedition to Nepal, hoping to climb Lhotse, the fourth-highest mountain in the world, which shares a base camp and climbing route with Mount Everest. 
  He dreamed of following in the footsteps of Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary, by climbing through the infamous ice maze of the Khumbu Icefall, and he yearned to sleep in the grand amphitheatre of Everest Base Camp, surrounded by towering peaks. 
  He was also intrigued by the media publicity surrounding commercial expeditions to Everest. He wanted to discover for himself whether it had become the circus that everybody described. 
  But when a devastating avalanche swept across the Khumbu Icefall, he got more than he bargained for. Suddenly he found himself witnessing the greatest natural disaster Everest had ever seen. 
  And that was just the start. Everest Sherpas came out in protest, issuing a list of demands to the Government of Nepal. What happened next left his team confused, bewildered and fearing for their safety.

  The Dish - The Story of One...

  “A thorough, lively work of on-the-ground reportage. ... Friedman shares a remarkable story."" —Wall Street Journal 
  Acclaimed “chef writer” Andrew Friedman introduces readers to all the people and processes that come together in a single restaurant dish, creating an entertaining, vivid snapshot of the contemporary restaurant community, modern farming industry, and food-supply chain.  
  On a typical evening, in a contemporary American restaurant, a table orders their dinner from a server. It’s an exchange that happens dozens, or hundreds, of times a night—the core transaction that keeps the place churning. In this book, acclaimed chef writer Andrew Friedman slows down time to focus on a single dish at Chicago’s Wherewithall restaurant, following its production and provenances via real-time kitchen and in-the-field reportage, from the moment the order is placed to when the finished dish is delivered to the table. 
  As various components of this one dish are prepared by the kitchen team, Friedman introduces readers to the players responsible for producing it, from the chefs who conceived the dish and manage the kitchen, to the line cooks and sous chefs who carry out the actual cooking, and the dishwashers who keep pace with the dining room. 
  Readers will also meet the producers, farmers, and ranchers, who supply the restaurant, as Friedman visits each stop in the supply chain and profiles the key characters whose expertise and effort play essential roles in making the dish possible—they will walk rows of crops that line Midwestern farms, feel the chill of the cooler where beef dry-ages, harvest grapes at a Michigan winery, ride along with a delivery-truck driver, and hear the immigration sagas prevalent amongst often unseen and unheralded farm and restaurant workers. 
  The Dish is a rollicking ride inside every aspect of a restaurant dish. Both a fascinating window onto our food systems, and a celebration of the unsung heroes of restaurants and the collaborative nature of professional kitchen work, The Dish will ensure that readers never look at any restaurant meal the same way again.  
  ""Masterful. ... Friedman excels at bringing the dining room to boisterous life with vivid, telling details. ... This will sate gastronomes and casual foodies alike."" — Publishers Weekly (starred review)

  The Herb and Spice Garden -...

  Herbs and spices have been an integral part of human culture for centuries, shaping our food, health, and even our daily rituals. From the rich, aromatic notes of basil in Italian cuisine to the vibrant warmth of cumin in Middle Eastern dishes, these tiny powerhouses of flavor elevate the ordinary to extraordinary. Beyond taste, herbs and spices also carry centuries of tradition, medicinal uses, and cultural significance. Whether grown in your backyard, balcony, or kitchen windowsill, the act of cultivating these plants provides a deeper connection to the food we prepare and the flavors we savor. 
  Why Grow Your Own? 
  While many of us enjoy the convenience of pre-packaged herbs and spices from the grocery store, there is something incredibly special about growing your own. Freshly picked herbs from your garden are unparalleled in both flavor and aroma. The difference between store-bought dried basil and freshly cut basil is striking; it’s not just about taste but also the vibrant green color, the essential oils, and the sheer joy of picking your own ingredients. Growing your own herbs and spices allows you to create a garden that’s uniquely yours, tailored to your tastes, and adapted to your climate. Additionally, when you grow your own, you have access to herbs and spices at their peak potency, without the added preservatives or packaging of store-bought varieties. 
  The Basics of Growing: A Beginner’s Guide 
  Starting a herb and spice garden is simpler than it may seem. Even if you have no prior gardening experience, herbs like basil, rosemary, and mint are relatively easy to grow and require minimal attention. Many of these plants thrive in a variety of conditions, making them perfect for beginner gardeners. Whether you’re planting in the ground or using containers, herbs are incredibly adaptable and can be grown in almost any space—from large backyards to small apartment balconies.
