Eat a Peach by David Chang

I didn't realize I was going to be reading another Asian-American immigrant/child of immigrants story, after reading We Were Dreamers and Portrait of a Thief, but it turned out to be a part of Eat a Peach too. David Chang is a famous restauranteur who opened Momofuku in NYC in the early 2000s, and his memoir is unexpectedly candid about his flaws and his mistakes. He doesn't even spend a lot of time apologizing for what he's done; he just acknowledges them and talks about his mental health problems and the things he was going through at the time. He was blunt and sarcastic and definitely not a stereotypical memoir-type author, and I thought it was a really interesting view into the life of a professional chef.
