Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly by Anthony BourdainMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
An impressively profane and funny memoir about life in restaurant kitchens. You can tell from his language and allusions that he's been hyper-educated (not just in food) though tries to put forward a bad-boy chef persona. I read this after Bourdain died and so there were some passages I found chilling and nearly prescient, but I can't make sense of his suicide at all.
