'Test Kitchen is phenomenal - a mad, magical, ten-course feast of a novel, gorgeously written, totally original, packed with ideas and invention. Incredibly ambitious too - so many characters, so many stories, all of it choreographed so expertly. It deserves to be a massive success. Three Michelin stars!' Paul Murray, author of The Bee Sting 'Test Kitchen is an amazing novel that hovers somewhere between the fantastical and gritty realism. Veering from humorous to horrifying, Neil Stewart shows real insight into the mildly unhinged nature of both high-end restaurants and their diners - with wit, lyricism and a killer turn of phrase' Marina O'Loughlin 'Test Kitchen offers a necklace of short stories strung on the golden thread of a novel. It is full of twists that will leave you winded. It is a thriller, a meticulously painted picture of the world of high-end dining, a portrait of different kinds of damage, a deeply felt story of what people begin as and what they become. It is, in short, a wild, wild ride' Neel Mukherjee, author of Choice 'A gorgeous tasting menu of a novel, a glittering mystery as sharp as a paring knife and as artfully constructed as its fictional restaurant. Like the best fine dining experience, Test Kitchen is beautiful, satisfying and ultimately surprising' Lauren Beukes, author of The Shining Girls 'Test Kitchen vibrates with the tension of a high-end restaurant and the convergence of many seething, heartbreaking, fascinating past lives. I did not want this book to end. And when it did, I was bereft' Lara Haworth, author of Monumenta
