Product Information

An updated and revised edition of Anthony Bourdain's mega-bestselling Kitchen Confidential, with new material from the original edition Almost two decades ago, the New Yorker published a now infamous article, "Don't Eat before You Read This," by then little-known chef Anthony Bourdain. Bourdain spared no one's appetite as he revealed what happens behind the kitchen door. The article was a sensation, and the book it spawned, the now classic Kitchen Confidential , became an even bigger sensation, a megabestseller with over one million copies in print. Frankly confessional, addictively acerbic, and utterly unsparing, Bourdain pulls no punches in this memoir of his years in the restaurant business. Fans will love to return to this deliciously funny, delectably shocking banquet of wild-but-true tales of life in the culinary trade from Chef Anthony Bourdain, laying out his more than a quarter-century of drugs, sex, and haute cuisine--this time with never-before-published material.

  • As relevant now as it was 18 years ago- funny a hell.

    IT is tragic that we have lost the eclectic personality known as " Tony " to his friends. His acerbic wit will be missed. Having worked in kitchens in the same era as Tony made this book a MUST READ- I enjoyed it immensely and laughed throughout the entire book. I could not put it down. Pretty amazing since the book is 18 years old. It is relevant today and will be for years to come. Great read- and RIP Tony. (:

  • A wonderful book to read since we all have an intimate relationship with food.

    Bourdain starts out by introducing you to food, how he got to know it and why it’s something more than “a substance one stuffs in one’s face when hungry — like filling up at a gas station.” He goes through his early relationship with food and why he made the jump from a kid who was surprised by a cold soup like Vichyssoise to a food-obsessed student at the Culinary Institute of America. The text skips over entire years in Bourdain’s life with ease, but you don’t notice. He focuses on the food, the good food as he puts it — everything else falls into place around it.

  • Reality Check 101

    This book is an extremely interesting rendition of life behind the scenes in the average New York city restaurant. It is informative (when and when NOT to order the fish plate) and educational (which knives are best and where to put your money in cooking tools). But WARNING if you are easily offended by the most foul of language then by all means turn your virgin eyes away. Without the colorful words you would never really comprehend the brotherhood of a chef's world. The author gives us a bit too much knowledge of his private life but you forgive him everything as you see the compassionate, caring person behind the scenes. It is what it is....probably the most difficult of all the service professions. An interesting autobiography unravels seamlessly while you realize that this man ...

  • Intelligent, Humorous, a Real Buffet of Words!

    Anthony Bourdain serves up a tough, candid, humorous banquet of entertainment and information in Kitchen Confidential. From his earliest culinary experiences as a child in France- his palate for exotic food was captured while slurping a fresh oyster at age 9- Bourdain acts as a no reservations tour-guide into restaurant kitchens from New York City to Tokyo, divulging secrets that may cause the reader to consider whether going out to eat is EVER a good idea. Bourdain handles his computer keyboard like a chef's knife, slicing and dicing a deliciously funny, delectably shocking, devilishly appealing buffet of words that lay out his 25 years of sex, drugs, and haute cuisine. Honesty and passion drip from every syllable as he shows, in memoir style, how his aggressive, addictive personality ...
