The Slutty Cheff

What if Anthony Bourdain were a twentysomething London woman with a libido as big as her appetite? Meet the “Slutty Cheff.” Known for her cult-followed Instagram account, the anonymous chef has written a memoir, Tart, which leaves you hungry for more. More food. More sex. More Slutty Cheff.

We were supposed to meet at one of my favorite restaurants in London, but she asks if I can come to her favorite instead, because she has a “weird thing” with the chef at the one I suggested. Already, she’s living up to my high expectations.
