Synopsis
The instant New York Times bestseller and follow-up to Anthony Bourdain's blockbuster classic on the cooking life, Kitchen Confidential Medium Raw marks the return of the inimitable Anthony Bourdain, author of the blockbuster bestseller Kitchen Confidential and three-time Emmy Award-nominated host of No Reservations on TV's Travel Channel. Bourdain calls his book, "A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook," and he is at his entertaining best as he takes aim at some of the biggest names in the foodie world, including David Chang, Alice Waters, the Top Chef winners and losers, and many more. If Hunter S. Thompson had written a book about the restaurant business, it could have been Medium Raw., Medium Raw marks the return of the inimitable Anthony Bourdain, author of the blockbuster bestseller Kitchen Confidential and three-time Emmy Award-nominated host of No Reservations on TV's Travel Channel.

    • Medium Raw, a compelling look into the life and world of Anthony Bourdain.

      Bourdain writes in a manner that has the reader being in that moment. This book also shows that unfortunately he had in the past thoughts of suicide. We only see glimpses of people on TV. This, as his other works shows a much broader look inside his life. Some dark as well as light moments of what the world of food, TV and Tony's piece of it was like. A must read for any fan.

    • A great read

      Anthony was a great writer and spoke to me as any one I worked with in restaurants. Down to earth with no BS. Buy the book and explore the wittiness and intelligent conversation.
