      Dedication

      To Mom, who became a carhop—the second-hardest job besides being a mother—at Marty’s Drive-In in Santa Monica at age thirteen.

      Also, to my grandmother, Gammie, and Aunt Bea, who both worked at Van de Kamp’s, and my grandfather, Coley, who, in 1946, was one of the best executive chefs in Las Vegas when it was just a spot in the Nevada desert.

      Lastly, to every person who has worked as a waiter, chef, or any other job in the food industry. Everyone should, at one time or another; it humbles you, and you’ll tip better afterward.
