Kitchen Confidential (audiobook version)

I explain it to people this way: having worked in a few kitchens, I cannot adequately describe to you the sounds, the rhythm, the vibrations. You have to actually hear it in order to understand it. Anthony Bourdain was not meant to live on a flat page. That’s why we love watching him on our screens. I listen to his bloody descriptions and embarrassing failures and dipshit choices whenever I need to remember what it feels like to write a sentence that matters.
