Yes, Chef.

Every second counts.

We love "The Bear" and reckoned some others may too. Hank wrote the Season One cookbook as a gift for his brother and sister; seemed like there was some appetite to see the recipes, restaurants, book recommendations, soundtrack and travel tips from Season Two.

Mini July update: I'm touched by how people are responding to this little project - thank you. It was just meant to be a fun present thing and I find myself a bit moved to see readers getting a kick out of it. It's been the nicest surprise.

Is this associated with the FX and Hulu hit? Nope! It's totally unofficial and only exists because the real deal does not. Are the recipes real? Yes!

This cookbook has recipes for (almost) all of the food featured in Season Two of the FX and Hulu tv program, along with tips about Chicago. Mom's Honey Bun? For sure! The Michael Cannoli? Absolutely. Every dish from the seven fishes? We're just nuts enough to do it. Need a little primer on Copenhagen hotdogs or Chicago architecture? Looking for a tour of Chicago restaurants? Yes, Chef!

It's made for home cooks, not Michelin-starred baddies.

If anyone other than me purchases this, proceeds will be donated to serve people dealing with alcoholism and addiction.
