Kitchen Confidential Annotated Edition: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly --

<p><strong>A deluxe, annotated edition of <em>Kitchen Confidential</em> to celebrate the life of Anthony Bourdain, featuring new photo inserts</strong></p><p>Over two decades ago, the <em>New Yorker</em> published a now infamous article, "Don't Eat Before Reading 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 iconic <em>Kitchen Confidential</em>, became an even bigger sensation and megabestseller. Frankly confessional, addictively acerbic, and utterly unsparing, Bourdain pulls no punches in this memoir of his years in the restaurant business.</p><p>Fans will love to return to this deliciously funny, delectably shocking banquet of wild-but-true tales of life in the culinary trade, laying out Bourdain's more than a quarter-century of drugs, sex, and haute cuisine. Including a handwritten introduction and annotations done by Bourdain about a decade after the book was originally published, this edition also features previously unpublished photos to accompany the now-classic text. </p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Anthony Bourdain<br><b>Publisher:</b> Ecco Press<br><b>Published:</b> 05/28/2024<br><b>Pages:</b> 416<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.01lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.80h x 5.90w x 1.30d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780063376502
