And they did. In \u003ci\u003eSuper Chef\u003c\/i\u003e, veteran journalist Juliette Rossant takes you on an unprecedented tour inside the business of the food business, one of the world's most glamorous -- and little-known -- industries. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYou catch glimpses of them everywhere: on television, in tabloid gossip columns pictured at glitzy parties with Hollywood stars and power brokers, in national magazine stories about their latest business projects. You buy their products at your local supermarket or online, or maybe even stay at their hotels. Traditional chefs may have stayed in the kitchen and rarely ventured into the public eye, but a growing number of today's top chefs are utilizing skills seldom taught in cooking school -- trading anonymity for celebrity and rising to build culinary empires. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJuliette Rossant goes behind the scenes with these new moguls to reveal the key ingredients that go into making a Super Chef. Culinary talent remains the base component, but today's Super Chef must be a whole lot more -- equal parts entrepreneur, realtor, fundraiser, publicist, and media star. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eSuper Chef\u003c\/i\u003e, Rossant profiles six of the hottest names in the industry today. From Wolfgang Puck's Spago Beverly Hills to his pizza in your freezer, from Charlie Palmer's Microsoft-powered eWinebook to Todd English on the QM2, from Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger's appearing as the Food Network's \u003ci\u003eToo Hot Tamales\u003c\/i\u003e to New York's most recent contender Tom Colicchio of both Gramercy Tavern and Craft -- Rossant spins their tales of \u003ci\u003ehaute cuisine\u003c\/i\u003e and corporate conquest. Each of these culinary magnates has taken a unique path to the top, and Rossant adds up the variations in their experiences to offer a gripping and astute look at what it takes to become the cream of the crop. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJuliette Rossant knows food, celebrity, and business.
