The book begins beautifully. In fact, the first half was one of the best autobiographies I’d read - about how a young boy from very humble beginnings started a life and built a career in the culinary scene in England. It was honest without being sappy, insightful without being too detail-laden. I thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the classic Scottish pipe tunes, and I love to hear it played by proficient pipers or fiddlers.

Who stars in The Devil in the Kitchen: Cast List

DEVIL IN THE KITCHEN is Marco White's memoir. It's the story of a boy from a financially strapped working class home in Leeds. It chronicles the distress of a boy who lost his mother at age 6, who feared the loss of his father from terminal cancer four years later, who was estranged from his father in late adolescence and who floundered through two unsuccessful marriages and nearly a dozen irretrievably damaged relationships in pursuit of his dream.

The Devil in the Kitchen by Marco Pierre White, James Steen

Just for fun, I like to play it in a set followed by Orange and Blue ( https://thesession.org/tunes/2091) and then the Marquis of Huntly’s Highland Fling ( https://thesession.org/tunes/9750); I call it my “Fling set” as these are three tunes quite commonly played for the Highland Fling in competitive Highland dance (including in sets together). ↳ In The Devil in the Kitchen White tells the story behind his ascent from working-class roots to culinary greatness, leaving no dish unserved as he relays raucus and revealing tales featuring some of the biggest names in the food world and beyond, including: Mario Batali, Gordon Ramsay, Albert Roux, Raymond Blanc, Michael Caine, Damien Hirst, and even Prince Charles. The descent through the kitchen is straightforward at first, however the path then becomes less obvious as you navigate the boulder field. The route is quite steep in parts, requiring a little boulder hopping and some easy level scrambling (or perhaps a little bum shimmying!)I’m an eggoholic, so I was visualizing the clouds parting, and a ray of sunshine beaming down to turn the yolk to a yellow flame. Marco Pierre White has had an illustrious career for sure, but he's no Anthony Bourdain. At least Tony has respect for the cultures of the world and sees what an as* he has been.

The Devil In The Kitchen (strathspey) on The Session

The world's most celebrated chefs are divided into two opposing camps these days. In one, there are the do-gooder humanists like Alice Waters of Berkeley's Chez Panisse. In the other, there are the self-avowed holy terrors like Britain's Marco Pierre White, author of this plodding autobiography, co-written with James Steen and originally published in the U.K. in 2006 under the untoward title White Slave For Slainte, a tip for getting a drive into your strathspeys is to tap your foot on every beat rather then every second beat. This tip comes courtesy of Wendy MacIsaac, a great CB fiddler. I was in a workshop with her and she said that doing this will help you to accent every beat. And another tip is to physically lift your bow off the strings where it permits. Hope this helps! ↳

Once we reached Llyn y Cwn, my son declared that he wanted to also “hike up that mountain” pointing to Glyder Fawr on the left. I decided that we would save that for another day, however, as the weather was turning and we weren’t prepared for a full-day hike with sufficient provisions. I’m all for adventuring and exploring new routes or mountains – even spontaneously – but safety is always my no. 1 priority. So on that day, it was the right decision for us. The mountains will always be there for us to return to… The Descent via Devil’s Kitchen I’ve been listening to Brenda Stubbert’s playing of this tune, but needless to say, I always feel hopeless while trying to imitate such hard-core CB fiddle playing on the whistle. Anyway, I’ll try the tip. Thanks a lot. ↳ I don't care much if that's the case, frankly: I'm more than happy to read about people I wouldn't want to share a meal with, but a memoir should at least be entertainingly fraudulent.

From the summit of Glyder Fawr, descend in a north westerly direction down a steep, loose scree path to the plateau below. Circle around the east side of Llyn y Cwn (the small lake) and down the chute towards the Devil’s Kitchen.

This is one of my favorite tunes. I have never paired it up with anything, though. Does anyone put it with anything in sets?
