Too many chefs spoil the soup, or in the case of Sophia's Trattoria, a trendy restaurant on Melrose Avenue, too many mobsters in the kitchen spoil the fun. Foodies and fine dining aficionados will love The Compulsive Chef by Stephen Anthony, a light hearted romp that celebrates all things gastronomic. When David, a young, world-class chef, and his brother Vinnie open a new restaurant in the City of Angels with seed money secured from mob boss Don Stefano, they unknowingly take on more than they bargained for. Blinding success is theirs until the Don's nephew Fat Tony muscles his way into the restaurant and opens a private club in the backroom. With the Feds growing suspicious and David unable to keep his hands off of Fat Tony's lustful wife, things reach a boiling point. In a rush of action and drama, a tragic event occurs and David is forced to run from the mafia and flee to a tropical island.
