Anthony Bourdain’s Kitchen Confidential
Anthony Bourdain has spent more than 20 years working in professional kitchens. He gained international acclaim with his surprise bestseller, Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly, which stemmed from his exposé, "Don’t Eat Before Reading This," of New York restaurants that was published in The New Yorker. The article attracted huge attention in America and the United Kingdom and formed the basis of his memoir Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly.
TV Cooking Show and Companion Book
In 2002, Food Network broadcast a 22-part series in which Bourdain traveled the world in search of extreme cuisine. Bourdain ate his way across the globe, looking for "kicks, thrills, epiphanies" and the "perfect meal." His series A Cook's Tour chronicles his culinary adventures—and misadventures—including the already infamous episode in which he ate the live beating heart of a cobra. The show’s companion book, A Cook’s Tour: In Search of the Perfect Meal, became a bestseller in the United States and the United Kingdom, and won the 2002 Guild of Food Writers Award for Food Book of the Year.
Anthony Bourdain is currently the executive chef at Brasserie Les Halles in New York. He graduated from the Culinary Institute of America before running kitchens at New York City's Supper Club, One Fifth Avenue and Sullivan’s.
