Kitchen Confidential Annotated Edition

<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done by Bourdain about a decade after the book was originally published, this edition also features previously unpublished photos to accompany the now-classic text.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>
