  • Revisiting ‘Kitchen Confidential’

    Revisiting ‘Kitchen Confidential’
    2025/12/13
    Anthony Bourdain published his memoir Kitchen Confidential in 2000 as a little-known chef. In the 25 years since its publication, his writing – and subsequent work in TV and entertainment – has shaped the way we talk about restaurants and food. In today’s Books We’ve Loved, Andrew Limbong and B.A. Parker are joined by Eric Deggans, critic-at-large at NPR. They discuss Bourdain’s documentation of a particular time in the restaurant industry, the book’s impact on dining culture, and Bourdain’s personal legacy. Then, special guest Samin Nosrat shares her perspective on what’s changed in the culinary world in the years since.


    Eric’s Recommendation: ‘Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets’ by David Simon

    Parker’s Recommendation: ‘Land of Milk and Honey’ by C Pam Zhang

    Andrew’s Recommendation: ‘Meet Me in the Bathroom’ by Lizzy Goodman
