I'm not usually all that fond of memoirs and autobiographies, but it sounds like his personality and the craziness of the restaurant industry distinguish this one. I can recall hearing news stories about the nasty conditions in some New York restaurants when I was a kid -- back when Koch was mayor. 😂 Thanks for the commentary, and have a good one.
I remember reading this one as a teenager maybe 12 or 15 years ago. I recall it being a very solid and enjoyable memoir. Thanks for the video! I had forgotten all about this book!

I've heard some real horror stories about restaurant kitchens. Thanks for watching!
I loved that book and his various documentary shows. His later books are uneven but also good.
The only book of Bourdain's I've read was Bone in the Throat, but it's been so long since I've read it that I barely remember anything about it
