Eva Thorvald was born to a chef and a sommelier, and while both of them left her life pretty early, Eva still had gourmet food and drink in her blood. Told in vignettes from different points in Eva's life, Kitchens of the Great Midwest paints a portrait of an up-and-coming chef as she follows her curiosity from childhood through adulthood, becoming a culinary superstar. It took me a while to get around to this book (originally published in 2015), and while I enjoyed it well enough, I think I liked Stradal's The Lager Queen of Minnesota more. However, I may be in the minority in that opinion, and that's perfectly OK.
