Unreasonable Hospitality: The Remarkable Power of Giving People More Than They Expect by Will Guidara - Book Summary

Will Guidara had the opportunity to participate in a course called "Guest Chefs" while attending Cornell College. Every semester, a renowned chef would visit to prepare a dinner that the students in the course would independently manage. Guidara's team had the privilege of working with the famous chef Daniel Boulud. The dinner was successful, and they celebrated with a small party afterward. Guidara's experience with Boulud left a lasting impact, including a memory of Boulud making scrambled eggs for intoxicated college students.

However, tragedy struck when Guidara's mother passed away after a long battle with brain cancer. While he had plans to work in a kitchen in Spain, he was hesitant to rely solely on his father for financial support. Despite this, his father encouraged him to fulfill his commitment. Guidara later reached out to Boulud, requesting a special reservation for his father. Boulud generously provided a free meal in a reserved room, allowing Guidara and his father to share a special dinner together.

Guidara and his father found solace in the warm hospitality provided by Boulud and his team during their time of grief. The experience helped them overcome their sadness and brought comfort during a difficult period. From this, Guidara learned the value of using one's skills to positively impact the lives of others.
