Catching Hell
"An essential read for anyone looking to understand how the restaurant industry really works. Informative, hilarious and gripping. You'll devour every page and still be left wanting more."
—Chef Hung Huynh, Season 3 Winner of Bravo’s Top Chef
"A book that will not disappoint! Catching Hell is both entertaining and informative, a must read for 2022."
—Jamie Bissonnette, James Beard award-winner, Chef & Partner Toro, Coppa, and Little Donkey Boston
"Ricca knows this industry inside and out. He tells the story of his colorful career, and explains the business, with enthusiasm, wit, and candor—in lively, often salty, language we all can understand."
—Robert Hormats, former vice chairman Goldman Sachs International and Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the environment (2009-2013)
"Come for the seafood, but stay for the gripping tale of personality clashes behind the scenes at some of your favorite restaurants. Ricca and Muto paint a vivid picture of a rough-and-tumble industry that touches all of our lives, but until today, most of us knew nothing about."
—Patrick O’Shaughnessy CEO Positive Sum Venture Capital and author, Millennial Money: How Young Investors Can Build a Fortune
"Allen Ricca is constantly exploring new products and discovering new tastes, as well as revisiting & satisfying old ones. One thing is constant: his curiosity and dedication to quality food (sourcing) as well as his unyielding commitment to our industry's supply chain is unmatched. I am proud to work with him."
—Erik Sun, Owner, PursuitFarms Wagyu, executive chef Intercrew LA
"I have known and worked with Allen and his family for over 25 years. This endlessly entertaining book perfectly captures his personality, and gives an unflinching look at the chaotic process that brings seafood from oceans around the world to restaurant kitchens around the corner."
—M.J. Alam, Partner and Executive Chef Limani Rockefeller Center NYC
"Everyone has something to learn from Catching Hell—whether you are interested in seafood traceability, ethical business practices, or just getting the most out of your seafood order. "
—Morgan Chow scientist for California Natural Resources Agency
"A heady rollercoaster of jaw-droppers and heart-warmers, Catching Hell is an honest-to-goodness gift to the everyday diner and food-lover. All thanks to the restaurant world’s number-one champion, and the greatest dining companion I’ve ever had."
—Patty Diez, network development manager at Eater
