Book Description

Kitchen Confidential was inspired by an article Chef Bourdain published in the The New Yorker entitles ?Don?t Eat Before You Read 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 this 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 Rockerfeller 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.
