## 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* THE MAN BEHIND THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE, TONY , STARRING DOMINIC SESSA & EMILIA JONES 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.

Review: Great for a Fan of the Man - A great book with amazing recipes. Has some interesting recipes and definitely isn't a run of the mill book with the token recipes thrown in. Each recipe has a story behind it and has some interesting Italian recipes. Book quality is top of the line and arrived in perfect conditions. Great for any Anthony Bourdain fans and even has a few personal stories.
Review: A cookbook so cool that it hurts. - What an idea to have Ralph Steadman design the cookbook cover, an idea so fantastic that only Anthony Bourdain could have come up with it. I have yet to try the recipes, but being someone who eats everything and anything, I am pretty certain that I will love it. If nothing else, buy it for the great writing and the even better and unusual photos!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is well worth its excellent price.
*by A***H on 28 November 2016*

Anthony Bourdain is one of the most important people when it comes to food culture. His non-fiction publications, coupled with his stunning series has changed the way the world thinks about food. This cookbook comprises some of the knowledge he has gained since he took to the road. It includes recipes from all around the world, made more accessible to unfortunate people such as myself, who do not have an Asian market in the vicinity. I would suggest this book to anyone with an interest in food and travel: each recipe takes you in a different part of the world. It is well worth its excellent price.
