Nonfiction Book Review for ‘A SUPER UPSETTING BOOK ABOUT SANDWICHES’ By Tyler Kord


ABOUT THE BOOK:

Tyler Kord is chef-owner of the lauded No. 7 restaurant and No. 7 Sub shops in New York.
He is also a fabulously neurotic man who directs his energy into careless ruminations on sandwich philosophy, love, self-loathing, pay phones, getting drunk in the shower, Tom Cruise, food ethics, and what it's like having the names of two different women tattooed on your body. 
Most of these ruminations also happen to be truly excellent recipes, like roast beef with crispy shallots and smoky French dressing, or a mind-blowing mayonnaise that tastes exactly like pho. [Tyler, you never did finish writing that fried squid recipe though. You know that, right? -Ed.] This is his first book. If you buy it, you can help make sure it won't be his last.

MY REVIEW:  
5 stars!
I haven’t read a book this entertaining in a while!  Yes, you read that right. Sure, it’s a cookbook, but even if you never make a sandwich from it, you will still enjoy reading it!  My family saw this book sitting on the coffee table and their reactions to the title have been so funny. They’re used to me getting new books all the time because I do a lot of reviews, so it is rare for them to notice a new one. This definitely caught their attention.

It gets better from there.  I don’t want to spoil it for anybody so I can’t say too much but I’ll say this.  Don’t skip the Foreword.  Don’t skip the subscripts at the bottom either. The whole thing is hilarious. It even has redacted parts in it which I thought was funny. Seeing what all made it into this book, I’m curious what the editor managed to cut out!  Poor editor.  I’m sure he had a big job – but not necessarily in a bad way.

I haven’t tried any of these recipes yet because I live in a small town where a lot of the ingredients can’t be found. I really want to, though. They look delicious. I like strange and unusual things, and these recipes are definitely that.

What else can i say rather than to thank Doctor Okpamen who God used to reunite my marriage. Each day of my life, i ask God to bless Dr. Okpamen for he has made my life complete by bringing back my husband to me and for this reason, i made a vow to my self that i will testify on the internet to let the world know that Dr. Okpamen is a God on Earth. My husband and i had a fight for three days which led to our divorce. On this faithful day, i came across a testimony of how Dr. Okpamen helped a lady in getting back her lover. So, i contacted him and explained to him and he told me that my days of sorrows are over that my husband will come back to me within 12 to 16 hours for he's going to prepare a spell for me. Could you believe it, my husband came home begging that he needs me back. Do you need any kind of help? Contact him now via email: ( Doctorokpamenspelltemple@hotmail.com ), call and whats App him via +2348135254384 OR for more confirmation call or text me on my cell# +1 (914) 517-3229.
