Description
*New for 2025: celebrate the life and legacy of the inimitable Anthony Bourdain with KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL: 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION and LES HALLES COOKBOOK: 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION*
BEFORE THERE WAS THE BEAR, THERE WAS BOURDAIN.
Brash, wild, original and badass. Appetite is Anthony Bourdain’s interpretation of a normal cookbook.
As a restaurant professional, Bourdain spent his life on the fringes of normality – he worked while normal people played, and played while normal people slept. He then settled (kind of) into family life and focused on cooking for those he loved rather than those who paid. These are the recipes he turned to when called in for pancake service at sleepover parties or when preparing a violence-free family dinner.
Each and every word is informed by his years in the industry and a life dedicated to food. This is a man who declared the club sandwich as America’s Enemy and wanted you to understand the principles of Bad Sandwich Theory. He distilled his views on dessert to this: it should always be Stilton.
With a striking Ralph Steadman illustration for the cover and photography that somehow manages to be both strangely beautiful and utterly grotesque, this cookbook is a home-cooking, home-entertaining cookbook like no other.
