Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly

About this book

When Chef Anthony Bourdain wrote "Dont Eat Before You Read This" in The New Yorker he spared no ones appetite revealing what goes on behind the kitchen door. In Kitchen Confidential he expanded the appetizer into a deliciously funny delectably shocking banquet that lays out his twenty-five years of sex drugs and haute cuisine. From his first oyster in Gironda to the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center from the restaurants of Tokyo to the drug dealers of the East Village from the mobsters to the rats Bourdains brilliantly written and wonderfully read wild-but-true tales make the belly ache with laughter.
