Instead of sulking, she took the opportunity to check out of the rat race for good - cashing in her savings, moving to Paris, and landing a spot at the venerable Le Cordon Blue cooking school.  The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry is the funny and inspiring account of her struggle in a stew of hot-tempered, chefs, competitive classmates, her own \"wretchedly inadequate\" French - and how she mastered the basics of French cuisine. Filled with rich, sensual details of her time in the kitchen - the ingredients, cooking techniques, wine, and more than two dozen recipes - and the vibrant sights and sounds of the markets, shops, and avenues of Paris, it is also a journey of self-discovery, transformation, and, ultimately, love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48663567007979,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":49.44,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780143114130-1.jpg?v=1781607920","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780143114130","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
