27 personal histories of immigrant restaurant workers in New York City whose stories of persistence, hope, and endurance show how vital they are to our country

Compiled by a longtime chef who knows how indispensable—and fascinating—they are

All author proceeds from the book will be distributed evenly among the contributors.


Immigrants play an essential role in the growth, resiliency, and overall success of the food industry. In an age of rising anti-immigrant rhetoric, their voices must be heard.

“Restaurants as we know them in the US would not exist without immigrant labor,” begins Marc Meyer's preface to this unique collection. With these words, Meyer makes clear his commitment to centering the voices of the staff members who make his restaurants possible.

All of the contributors came to New York from another part of the world—Mexico, Bangladesh, Ivory Coast, and beyond--and all found their foothold in the restaurant industry. Among them are:

  • Angel V., an openly gay dissident lawyer from Venezuela who survived two kidnappings before coming to the US
  • Islam, from Bangladesh, who worked as a runner and expeditor and is now building his own mosque in Jamaica, Queens
  • Carlha, a Dominican sous-chef at Shuka who still makes rice the way her father taught her when she was a child


Their stories are a window into the staggering range of life experiences that immigrant workers carry with them. They are by turns funny, dark, poignant, surprising, and relatable. Most of all, they deserve our respect and our solidarity.

Very slow--5+ minutes to froth and warm milk
Color: White-Stainless
Pros-- Makes nice froth and warms the milk. Both froth settings produce the same kind of froth. it's relatively easy to clean-- usually just a strong rinse will do. It does fine in the dishwasher too. The noise level isn't bad. Cons--it takes between five and six minutes to froth milk. It is very slow. I can froth latte art milk on my espresso maker in less than a minute, by comparison. The forth it produces is too thick to make any kind of latte art.

Quality
Color: White-Stainless
What really impressed me is how fast it works—in just a couple of minutes, I have hot, creamy milk with thick, rich foam. The texture comes out smooth and fluffy, just like a coffee shop. It’s super easy to use, and cleaning it is quick too. I’ve used it for lattes, cappuccinos, and even hot chocolate, and it works perfectly every time. Definitely worth it if you want something quick, easy, and makes great foam in large amounts

Very nearly perfect!
Color: Matte Black
Admittedly, I'm writing this after making only one latte, but it was almost perfect! The milk was hot enough, but not too hot. The froth on my half & half was luxurious. It was super easy to use and select the what I want. I love the glass pitcher and being able to see my half & half as it heats and foams up. The only thing that isn't perfect, and I didn't take any off on my stars for, is that the frother is plastic. I'm striving for a plastic-free life and this Milk Frother and Steamer is very close to that, but heating plastic releases nanoparticles into the contents. I may have to buy another one, since it seems that there is no spare pitcher available to buy. Two pitchers would be very handy.

Easy to use, reliable machine
Color: White
Great product! I have a fully automated DeLonghi cappuccino/latte coffee machine. After 5 years of use, the machine's milk frothing function started to fail. I purchased this product to supplement/replace the milk frother on my DeLonghi automated coffee machine; it works great and produces copious milk froth with much less mess.

Best frother ever!
Color: White
This is the best frother ever! Works better than my expensive espresso machine frother. So easy and makes a large amount enough for 2 large cappuccinos.
