(as of [price_update_date] – Details)

At 5.37 a.m. my alarm goes off for the first time. By 6.09 a.m. I will be waiting on the metro platform. By 6.27 a.m. I pull open the swing door and duck under the pink curtain of the pâtisserie. I am probably last. In our tiny bakery on the other side of Paris, our cakes are made in the early morning, to preserve that freshness and crunch.

Following in the footsteps of Rachel Khoo, Frances Leech has been lured to the city of love by puff pastry. For the past year she has worked in a small little French-Japanese pâtisserie where margins are small and the pressure is on. On any given day this small bakery uses 100 passionfruit and coconut mousses, 18 kg of chestnut and rum paste for Mont-Blanc tarts alone.

Frances trains alongside her Japanese colleagues perfecting meringues, passionfruit mousse, millefeuille and sticky caramel as well as a working knowledge of idiomatic Japanese. She feels incompetent, clumsy, tall and gets burned a lot. But her colleagues are patient and kind and she learns to love the art of pastry, despite the early mornings.

Title: Quick, but delightful read
Review: I am only sad that it was not longer!A gifted author that quickly transports you right into her world, and given that works is filed with sugar, chocolate, butter, vanilla, etc….That is a added bonus!Frances Leech immerses all your senses into her world as a french patissier…including a special emphasis on sound. As a Pastry chef, I often find books of this type wanting, but she writes with a simple charm and factual accuracy that nails it. The organization, the exhaustion, the days without sun, the simple beauty of a glossy finish. I hope this is just a small tril piece of what may be larger work, I would certainly buy it.I honestly don’t understand reviews that say “I thought it was going to be this” “I thought it was going to be that”…if a book is not what you surmised, that is not a reason for a lower review! Likewise, the length is clearly there, just because you didn’t look is no reason to give less stars

Title: Great read, thoughtful with just the right degree of humor
Review: Concise, surprisingly dense and lovely like the layers of a croissant, Kitchen Rhythm is a piece that brings to life the seemingly secret life of pastry chefs. This is one vibrant view in to the (daily) life of a pastry chef/baker/someone who lives to eat and not the other way around.If you have an interest in slice-of-life pieces, food, culture and/or languages, you should read this.Fantastic work.

Title: Short and sweet
Review: This book was very short, but it was a lovely anecdotal account of life in a Paris patisserie. I did like the way it was written and I loved the way she wrote about the effect cooking had on her other senses. A good short read, I just would have preferred it to be just a little longer!

Title: Pamphlet mostly about Japanese culture
Review: Am I missing something here? It was pamphlet size, took all of 15 minutes to read and the author talked about the Japanese people she worked with, included Japanese words and talked about Japanese culture. Wasn’t this supposed to be about France???? Thank goodness it was free, but is sure was disappointing. And why were Japanese people running a French bakery???? I thought this thing was rather weird.

Title: Feel like a French patissier
Review: The only thing I didn’t like about this book is it’s lenght. I want more 😉 Reading this essay made me want to become a patissier as well! Frances really has a way with words. I could practically hear her confections snap, crackle and pop.

Title: Kindle single serving?
Review: I was very surprised at how short this piece was, it read more like a magazine article from a culinary magazine than a kindle “book”. That said, it is beautifully written and the author has a terriffic way with words (though maybe not with chocolate desserts?).If you are interested in the ruminations of somebody working with Japanese people in a French patisserie, this is the work for you. If, like me, you were expecting more detail of French bakery masterpieces, perhaps characters that develoed over time, some sort of plot or even just more text, you may be disappointed.I picked it up as a freebie and that was well worth the price, lovely little stopgap read. But shorter than perhaps necessary?

Review: I enjoyed this very visceral short story of what it’s like to work in a kitchen, not only the relationships with coworkers but the deep understanding of her medium. The crack of the chocolate, the consistency and sound the cream makes. Beautifully written

Review: A lovely little piece that takes the reader inside the life of an English woman working for a year in a French patisserie. I loved how she engaged all the senses – particularly sounds – to really paint her picture. Loved it.

Review: Nice little glimpse into how a passion can change your life and lead you somewhere unexpected. Shows how the pleasure of food is not just in taste.

Review: Beautifully evocative. Paris, passion and brutal reality in a nutshell. As someone who aspires to bake Patisserie like the French, I thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the process vicariously.
