Riassunto

After twenty-five years of 'sex, drugs, bad behaviour and haute cuisine', chef and novelist, Anthony Bourdain has decided to tell all. From his first oyster in the Gironde to his lowly position as a dishwasher in a honky-tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown; from the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop the Rockefeller Center to drug dealers in East Village, from Tokyo to Paris and back to New York again, Bourdain's tales of the kitchen are as passionate as they are unpredictable, as shocking as they are funny.

'Extraordinary ... written with a clarity and a clear-eyed wit to put the professional food-writing fraternity to shame' Observer
'A compelling book with its intriguing mix of clever writing and kitchen patois ... more horrifically gripping than a Stephen king novel' Sunday Times
'Real fast and frantic, this book conveys the buzz of the kitchen in a way that only a real cook will be able to understand' The Times
'A style partaking of Hunter S. Thompson, Iggy Pop and a little Jonathan Swift ... hysterical' New York Times
'A splendidly invigorating, informative and funny guide to a fascinating hidden world' Daily Telegraph
