{"product_id":"9781451655124","title":"Delancey: A Man, a Woman, a Restaurant, a Marriage","description":"In this funny, frank, tender memoir and \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller, the author of \u003ci\u003eA Homemade Life\u003c\/i\u003e and the blog Orangette recounts how opening a restaurant sparked the first crisis of her young marriage.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen Molly Wizenberg married Brandon Pettit, he was a trained composer with a handful of offbeat interests: espresso machines, wooden boats, violin-building, and ice cream–making. So when Brandon decided to open a pizza restaurant, Molly was supportive—not because she wanted him to do it, but because the idea was so far-fetched that she didn’t think he would. Before she knew it, he’d signed a lease on a space. The restaurant, Delancey, was going to be a reality, and all of Molly’s assumptions about her marriage were about to change.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTogether they built Delancey: gutting and renovating the space on a cobbled-together budget, developing a menu, hiring staff, and passing inspections. Delancey became a success, and Molly tried to convince herself that she was happy in their new life until—in the heat and pressure of the restaurant kitchen—she realized that she hadn’t been honest with herself or Brandon.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWith evocative photos by Molly and twenty new recipes for the kind of simple, delicious food that chefs eat at home, \u003ci\u003eDelancey\u003c\/i\u003e is a moving and honest account of two young people learning to give in and let go in order to grow together.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47155506086128,"sku":"9781451655124","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781451655124_p0.jpg?v=1763838040","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781451655124","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
