And for many years first as a chef later as a world-traveling chronicler of food and culture on his CNN series Parts Unknown he has made a profession of understanding the appetites of others. These days however if hes cooking its for family and friends.Appetites his first cookbook in more than ten years boils down forty-plus years of professional cooking and globe-trotting to a tight repertoire of personal favoritesdishes that everyone should (at least in Mr. Bourdains opinion) know how to cook. Once the supposed bad boy of cooking Mr. Bourdain has in recent years become the father of a little girla role he has embraced with enthusiasm. After years of traveling more than 200 days a year he now enjoys entertaining at home. Years of prep lists and the hyper-organization necessary for a restaurant kitchen however have caused him in his words to have morphed into a psychotic anally retentive bad-tempered Ina Garten.The result is a home-cooking home-entertaining cookbook like no other with personal favorites from his own kitchen and from his travels translated into an effective battle plan that will help you terrify your guests with your breathtaking efficiency.
