OK, so I'm a big fan of Anthony Bourdain (celebrity chef, world traveler, bestselling author, and host of The Travel Channel's Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations ). I have read all his books, definitely a good read for those who have worked in a kitchen restaurant and who are nostalgic of the excess adrenaline that one gets in that environment. He depicts it like it is, crudely sometimes! My favorite remains Kitchen Confidential .My only disappointment is that I did not get to meet him while he was here. I can relate to what he is living and going through. I guess it was not part of our destiny YET! I think it's wonderful that he has a chance to make a living out of traveling around the world and telling his food stories on TV. I am presently doing it on LBC on a different level, guess it makes me lucky too... Hope to meet up with you one day, should our path cross through the channels of food.
