Abstract: Black links this debate over language to the struggles faced by women chefs who feel forced to adopt masculine work behaviors. However, Black does a thorough job of presenting the history of French cooking and explaining the role of cuisine Lyonnais in French gastronomic culture. Black also describes her time studying at a French culinary academy and working an internship at a busy restaurant as a way to provide vital context of the physical, social, and cultural barriers women face to fit in within these extremely male-dominated spaces.
