THE RISE OF ANNA HAUGH
A deeply personal culinary memoir of grit, growth, and creative leadership.
What happens when a young girl from Tallaght dares to dream beyond her neighborhood kitchen and ends up reshaping the world of modern cuisine?
In this intimate, inspiring life story, Anna Haugh charts her journey from family meals in Dublin to Michelin kitchens in London and Paris, and finally to founding Myrtle, a restaurant rooted in memory, identity, and innovation.
Through setbacks and breakthrough moments, from industry sexism to the spotlight of national television, Anna reveals what it takes to thrive in high-pressure kitchens without losing yourself along the way.
Readers will discover:What it means to lead a kitchen with both strength and empathy
How Irish culinary heritage continues to inspire her bold, elegant dishes
Why the stories behind the food matter as much as the flavors themselves
The emotional balancing act of ambition, wellness, and creative joy
This isn't just a story about cooking, it's about becoming.
For fans of Yes, Chef, Taste, or Rebel Chef, this book offers an unforgettable look behind the apron.
