What happens when the president of current production at Bravo TV and a former Food Network executive decide to write a book? What happens when the boldness and heat of the characters of the Holy Land become a part of the backdrop of a food reality show? You get the Two-Plate Solution.
 
The book The Two-Plate Solution, by Jeff Oliver, combines the laughs of a comedic novel with the suspense of a thriller, offering readers a peek behind the scenes of an ultra-popular food show, injected with many unexpected twists and turns.
 
Set in Israel, the colorful cast portrays sexy chefs and characters, but all with a comic exaggeration and hilarious excessiveness: it’s Anthony Bourdain's (RIP) raw and earthy bad boy flavor meets hilarious memories of an Israeli summer vacay. Take in all the Israeli references, the succulent Middle Eastern cuisine, and Hebrew slang while you sit on the edge of your seat. No good story is complete without a plot thickening, and this one is no different, as a group of crazed terrorists take over the set.
 

The cast of Dish-aster season 5 embarks on the journey of Middle Eastern cuisine all with a touch of reality, a lot of laughs, and food references that keep any food lover reading with suspense, having you rethink the complexity of the Middle East revealed through the beauty of two cultures, and all combined with the love of food.

This is a book for anybody who has any connection to Israel, whether it be distant memories of a Birthright trip to a love for the passion of the locals, or any connection to food; it revels in the local lingo, the heat of the locals, and all the unusual experiences that can happen in this small country combined with – yes – everything food and everything reality show.
