{"product_id":"9781440163357","title":"It's a Miracle They Ain't Dead Yet: Welcome to the Texas Café","description":"Kenneth Suna hoped to become a professional wrestler, but an eight-foot drop onto a cement floor quickly ended his fifteen-year dream. He found work at the Texas Café, a Washington, D.C., neighborhood restaurant and later at White Spice, a high-end seafood restaurant. In this memoir, Suna provides a unique glimpse into the restaurant industry from the perspective of a young man at the beginning of his career. \u003cbr\u003eIn It's a Miracle They Ain't Dead Yet, Suna delivers humorous true stories and descriptions from the kitchen. From maniac managers to quirky customers and eclectic co-workers, he reveals all, including stories about the knife-wielding dishwasher, dead rats in the kitchen, cooks using cocaine, and situations similar to \"Waiter, there's a roach in my food!\" \u003cbr\u003eSuna is not a chef, nor does he own a restaurant. He was an employee at the bottom rung, and he saw it all-good and bad management, the treatment of immigrants, endearing stories, and shocking kitchen scenes. Eating out will never be the same.","brand":"iUniverse, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124950581488,"sku":"9781440163357","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781440163357_p0.jpg?v=1763792952","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781440163357","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
