Globally beloved chef Anthony Bourdain's bestselling classic-the hearty, delicious recipes and provocative tricks of the trade from his famed French brasserie where he made his name.Before stunning the world with his bestselling Kitchen Confidential, and hit TV shows Parts Unknown and No Reservations, Anthony Bourdain spent years serving some of the best French brasserie food in New York. With its no-nonsense, down-to-earth atmosphere, Les Halles matched Bourdain's style perfectly: a restaurant where you can dress down, talk loudly, drink a little too much wine, and have a good time with friends. Now, 20 years after its original publication, Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook remains an audacious classic, full of his signature humor and charm.Bourdain teaches you everything you need to know to prepare classic French bistro fare. While you're being guided, in simple steps, through recipes like roasted veal short ribs and steak frites, escargots aux noix and foie gras au pruneaux, you'll feel like he's in the kitchen beside you-firing off a few insults when you've scorched the sauce, and then patting you on the back for finally getting the steak tartare right.As practical as it is entertaining, Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook make for a can't-miss treat for cookbook lovers, aspiring chefs, and Bourdain fans everywhere. Kitchen Confidential:An updated and revised edition of Anthony Bourdain's mega-bestselling Kitchen Confidential, with new material from the original editionAlmost two decades ago, the New Yorker published a now infamous article, “Don’t Eat before You Read This,” by then little-known chef Anthony Bourdain. Bourdain spared no one’s appetite as he revealed what happens behind the kitchen door. The article was a sensation, and the book it spawned, the now classic Kitchen Confidential, became an even bigger sensation, a megabestseller with over one million copies in print. Frankly confessional, addictively acerbic, and utterly unsparing, Bourdain pulls no punches in this memoir of his years in the restaurant business.Fans will love to return to this deliciously funny, delectably shocking banquet of wild-but-true tales of life in the culinary trade from Chef Anthony Bourdain, laying out his more than a quarter-century of drugs, sex, and haute cuisine—this time with never-before-published material.
