SynopsisA NEW YORK TIMES- BESTSELLING PHENOMENON "Utterly riveting, swaggering with stylish machismo." - New York magazine The bestselling breakout chef's tell-all from Anthony Bourdain, the globally beloved Emmy award-winning host of Parts Unknown and No Reservations. In the now-classic memoir that launched Anthony Bourdain's long career, the globally beloved chef took us through the swinging kitchen doors and turned the culinary trade on its head. The result was a deliciously funny, shocking banquet of wild tales that drew from "twenty-five years of sex, drugs, bad behavior and haute cuisine." Sure to delight gourmands and philistines alike, Bourdain recounts everything from his first oyster in the Gironde to his lowly position as dishwasher in a honky-tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown (where he became hooked on chef work for life); from the stovetops of the Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center to drug dealers in the East Village, from Tokyo to Paris and back to New York again. Bourdain's tales of the kitchen are as passionate as they are unpredictable, and Kitchen Confidential will make your mouth water and your belly ache with laughter and leave you wanting more., The New York Times bestselling memoir from Anthony Bourdain, the host of Parts Unknown. Kitchen Confidential reveals what Bourdain calls "twenty-five years of sex, drugs, bad behavior and haute cuisine." Last summer, The New Yorker published Chef Bourdain's shocking, "Don't Eat Before Reading This." Bourdain spared no one's appetite when he told all about what happens behind the kitchen door. Bourdain uses the same "take-no-prisoners" attitude in his deliciously funny and shockingly delectable book, sure to delight gourmands and philistines alike. From Bourdain's first oyster in the Gironde, to his lowly position as dishwasher in a honky tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown (where he witnesses for the first time the real delights of being a chef); from the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center, to drug dealers in the east village, from Tokyo to Paris and back to New York again, Bourdain's tales of the kitchen are as passionate as they are unpredictable. Kitchen Confidential will make your mouth water while your belly aches with laughter. You'll beg the chef for more, please., New York Chef Anthony Bourdain gives away secrets of the trade in his wickedly funny, inspiring memoir/ exposé

  • The hard truth behind the scenes of the culinary world

    Anthony Bourdain tells a raw and truthful story about how the restaurant industry works. He holds back nothing in his gritty and sometimes borderline offensive tale. If you can handle some harsh language and keep an open mind, what he tells you will change the way you think about your favorite eatery.
