Marco Pierre White was the original rock-star chef - the guy who all of us wanted to be... He made history. Unquestionably, this is the most influential cookbook of all time. White Heat was the book that made boys want to become great chefs. White Heat made kitchen work as sexy as being a lead singer and Marco wore it like Mick Jagger.
White Heat is an edifying read ... a book that breaks new ground. Time Out White Heat is as unlike any previously published cook book as Marco is unlike any run-of-the-mill chef. Sunday Telegraph Wonderfully illustrated with photographs by Bob Carlos Clarke...this will sit equally well on your coffee table or kitchen worktop. GQ Amazingly religious experience -- Anthony Bourdain
