Book Reviews of The Nasty Bits: Collected Varietal Cuts, Usable Trim, Scraps, and Bones

Book Review: Short Bits from Bourdain
Summary: 3 Stars

I found this book somewhat enjoyable as a self-professed fan of the author. It is a collection of thoughts left out of Kitchen Confidential (or repeats of those thoughts at times) and experiences of his since hitting the road making travel shows.

It is no Kitchen Confidential, but an easy read and more great insights from Mr. Bourdain. Having seen most of his shows some of this is reduntant, but still quite enjoyable.

Summary of The Nasty Bits: Collected Varietal Cuts, Usable Trim, Scraps, and Bones

In the multiweek New York Times bestseller The Nasty Bits, bestselling chef and No Reservations host Anthony Bourdain serves up a well-seasoned hellbroth of candid, often outrageous stories from his worldwide misadventures. Whether surviving a lethal hot pot in Chengdu, splurging on New York’s priciest sushi, or singing the praises of Ecuadorian line cooks and Hell’s Kitchen dives, Bourdain is as provocative, engaging, and opinionated as ever. The Nasty Bits is an irresistible tasting menu of food writing at its outrageous best—served up Bourdain style.
