About This Audiobook

Matthew Kenney's journey through the culinary world is a wildly unconventional tale of creativity, risk-taking, and unbridled passion. As the founder of the famous Matthew Kenney Cuisine, a revolutionary plant-based restaurant empire, Kenney's story is as much about innovation as it is about the personal sacrifices that come with being a true trailblazer. Narrator Donny Baarns brings Kenney's memoir to life with a smooth, conversational style that perfectly captures the energy and charisma of its author. Baarns' skillful narration makes Cooked Raw feel less like a memoir and more like a conversation with a friend who's regaling you with tales of adventure and transformation.
Kenney's exploration of the future of food is as thought-provoking as it is fascinating. His vision of a world beyond traditional agriculture and industrialized food systems is both inspiring and unsettling, and it's clear that Kenney is driven by a genuine desire to change the world, one plate at a time. Whether you're a foodie, a fan of entrepreneurial stories, or simply someone interested in the intersection of creativity and innovation, Cooked Raw is a must-listen that will leave you feeling energized and motivated.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was blown away by the infectious enthusiasm of Matthew Kenney's story, and Donny Baarns' narration was the perfect complement to Kenney's boundless energy. Baarns brought a sense of intimacy and warmth to the listening experience that made me feel like I was sitting down to dinner with Kenney himself. As I listened to Kenney's tales of experimentation and innovation, I found myself getting caught up in the excitement of his culinary journey. However, I did feel that some of the more technical aspects of plant-based cooking could have been explained in more detail for listeners who may be unfamiliar with the subject. Nevertheless, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise engaging and inspiring listen. One of the things that really stood out to me was Kenney's willingness to take risks and challenge conventional wisdom. Whether he's talking about his early struggles as a young chef or his later success as a culinary leader, Kenney's story is a testament to the power of creativity and determination. If you're looking for a listen that will leave you feeling motivated and inspired, Cooked Raw is an excellent choice.
