Britt and Leo have spent ten years running Winesap, the best restaurant in their small Pennsylvania town. They cater to their loyal customers; they don't sleep with the staff; and business is good, even if their temperamental pastry chef is bored with making the same chocolate cake night after night. But when their younger brother, Harry, opens his own restaurant - a hip little joint serving an aggressive lamb neck dish - Britt and Leo find their own restaurant thrown off-kilter. Britt becomes fascinated by a customer who arrives night after night, each time with a different dinner companion. Their pastry chef, Hector, quits, only to reappear at Harry's restaurant. And Leo finds himself falling for his executive chef-tempted to break the cardinal rule of restaurant ownership.

      Narrator Elijah Alexander portrays a trio of brothers, each a restaurateur in a small town near Philadelphia, who compete for diners with their culinary and front-of-the-house skills. The novel moves back and forth between the brothers' dynamic personal endeavors and the quotidian activities involved in running a restaurant. Alexander gamely portrays the brothers, but their voices are indistinguishable even as they carry out their fierce rivalry. He also tries a bit too hard with women's voices, producing tones that tend to be cloying. Although the listener craves some mouthwatering details relating to cuisine, few are forthcoming as the chefs are distracted by kitchen dramas and romance. A.W. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine
