Chris Santos, is a chef and regular judge on Food Network’s Chopped, is also owner of restaurants Beauty and Essex, and The Stanton Social. His signature dishes are small plates meant for sharing, hence the title Share. The visual direction and design of the book builds on the mood of his restaurants which are dimly lit, intimate, luxurious places, and his signature tattoos and heavy metal persona. The images were styled to be moody and the typographic style is bold and direct.
