Tracking his own strange and unexpected voyage from journeyman cook to globe-travelling professional eater and drinker, Bourdain compares and contrasts what he's seen and what he's seeing, pausing along the way for a series of confessions, rants, investigations, and interrogations of some of the most controversial figures in food.And always he returns to the question: ‘Why cook?' Or the harder one to answer: ‘Why cook well?' Beginning with a secret and highly illegal after-hours gathering of powerful chefs he compares to a Mafia summit, Bourdain, in his distinctive, no-holds-barred style, cuts to the bone on every subject he tackles.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Food & DrinkTopic: BiographyRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
