Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook (P.S.)
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.

I tried the audiobook version of Medium Raw and it was a pleasure to hear his voice and have him narrate his own thoughts, feelings, memories, and comments. It also gave me a better feel of his sense of humour.
However, I probably would have enjoyed the book at least a bit more if I'd read Kitchen Confidential first. Oh, well! Still a fun read, and infinitely quotable. Though it did make me hungry a few times, as is to be expected.
