Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations
David_Dovey:
Hey
Fosters is awful
actually nobody in australia drinks fosters that is a joke australia is playing on the world
pilsner:
Sort of like Celine Dion in Canada! Exporting her to Las Vegas was payback for all the toxic waste that Americans had buried in the Canadian Shield....
On topic, yes Kitchen Confidential the book is one of my favorite restaurant books as well. If you liked that, check out Bill Buford's Heat, which is about Buford leaving The New Yorker (where he was fiction editor I think) to work as a galley slave in Babbo's kitchen for about a year, and then going to rural Italy to learn to be a pasta-maker and a butcher from Italians who have had those traditions in their families for generations. If you like food, the book is a sensual massage for your mind.
Bastardous Bassist:
What if you like Kitchen Confidential because it's one of the only books out there that actually describes what it's like to work in a kitchen?
pilsner:
You'll probably still like Heat.
