Will I love A Waiter in Paris?

This is Paris as you have never seen it (I hope!). A poor English boy finds himself penniless in Paris, and manages to get a job as a waiter in a seemingly smart restaurant. There follows a horrific and hilarious account of the dark underbelly of Paris - filthy kitchens, bullying bosses, sleazy lodgings, scrabbling for tips... I shall never again feel comfortable in a Paris restaurant - but it was a lively and funny read.

A fascinating true story of a very determined young man down on his luck--who turns adversity into success. Inspiring, and riveting. And very well-written!

It's a superbly written tale about a Brit waiter in the City of Light.

The author, Edward Chisholm, is, frankly, much, much better at the craft of writing than many hyped fiction authors. I also like his vivid showing—in the manner of Orwell's Down and Out in Paris and London—a grim, truthful side of Paris beneath the glamour.

Frankly, I don't understand how he survived his brutal ordeal as a Parisian server. Maybe the resiliency of youth.
