Review: Four Stars - Easy to read and covers a lot of topics. Well organised and laid out
Review: Libro fantastico - Li do 4 stelle invece di 5 perchè è pittosto ripetitivo riprende argomenti già trattati in altri capitoli. Un eccellente libro per chi vuole sapere come funziona un ristorante/pizzeria/fastfood.... Un bellissimo libro che si legge (per chi conosce l'inglese) tutto d'un fiato... Sicuramente un ottimo libro per chi come me vuole conoscere le basi per iniziare un percorso da ristoratore.... Lo consiglio.
