Produktbeschreibung

Bloomsbury presents Medium Raw written and read by Anthony Bourdain. **New for 2021: celebrate the life and legacy of the inimitable food writer with WORLD TRAVEL, Bourdain's guide to the global food scene, compiled by his long-time assistant and cookbook co-author** A lot has changed since Kitchen Confidential – for the subculture of chefs and cooks, for the restaurant business-and for Anthony Bourdain. Medium Raw explores these changes, moving back and forth from the author's bad old days to the present. 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.

Rezensionen

'Elizabeth David written by Quentin Tarantino'

'As ferociously rude as anything Bourdain has done before' Kathryn Hughes, Guardian

"Bourdain has insight, access and good taste, and he's a naturally engaging writer...Bourdain is a hopeless romantic when it comes to food and the people who cook. The subtitle's real valentines are two elegantly written profiles." New York Times Book Review
