Day 7: What real world figures does your MC look up to?
Sadie has two role models, both of whom were involved in the restaurant business.
Anthony Bourdain: Sadie’s first childhood hero was this globe-trotting food adventurer. She wasn’t much of a reader as a kid, but when she picked up Bourdain’s books in high school, it opened the world of food writing to her. His cookbooks are her first picks for recipe inspiration.
Ruth Fertel: the single mom who bought a steakhouse and built it into a household name. She had no previous experience, but she taught herself the business and became a prominent female entrepreneur in the industry. Sadie wants to be just like her someday — except she knows a little bit more about the business than Ruth did when she started out.
