He’s welcome to eat crackers in bed with me anytime. He’s funnier than hell, can cook like an angel, curse like a devil, drink like a sailor, and is one of those men that just get more handsome and sexy with age. Though he is somewhat of a hypocrite in how he has previously mocked celebrity chefs like Emeril Lagasse and Rachael Ray whilst simultaneously pursuing his own brand of foul-mouthed celebrity, I can’t help but like the guy. His attitude of irreverence, particularly within an industry that traditionally holds male chefs on very high pedestals, is refreshing. Of course, in his updated version of that classic foodie memoir, he recants in his inimitable style by saying “eat the fucking fish on Monday, already!”īourdain is as snarky and smart-assy as they come. I didn’t eat a Monday fish special at a restaurant for five years after reading Kitchen Confidential. Anthony Bourdain, to whom I refer affectionately as “my future ex-husband,” is never going to live that down. Original posting: May 2017: Oh, that damn Monday fish. One of my biggest culinary influences, as well as someone who changed my worldview in general, I loved, respected and honored his work and who he was as a human being.

Today marks two years from the date that my idol Anthony Bourdain died. You'll beg the chef for more, please.I originally posted this blog in May 2017. Kitchen Confidential will make your mouth water while your belly aches with laughter. From Bourdain's first oyster in the Gironde, to his lowly position as dishwasher in a honky tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown (where he witnesses for the first time the real delights of being a chef) from the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center, to drug dealers in the 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. Bourdain uses the same 'take-no-prisoners' attitude in his deliciously funny and shockingly delectable book, sure to delight gourmands and philistines alike.

Last summer, The New Yorker published Chef Bourdain's shocking, 'Don't Eat Before Reading This.' Bourdain spared no one's appetite when he told all about what happens behind the kitchen door. Kitchen Confidential reveals what Bourdain calls 'twenty-five years of sex, drugs, bad behavior and haute cuisine.'
