Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'It works extremely well. In large part because Bourdain is a very funny writer; sharp, honest and with a beguiling mix of belligerence and sensitivity' Sunday Telegraph 'Brilliantly written up in a raw, stylish gonzo prose, with pitch-black humour and a devilish turn of phrase' Evening Standard ____________________ Anthony Bourdain, life-long line cook and bestselling author of Kitchen Confidential, sets off to eat his way around the world. But being Anthony Bourdain, this was never going to be a conventional culinary tour. Bourdain heads out to Saigon where he eats the still-beating heart of a live cobra, and travels deep into landmined Khmer Rouge territory to find the rumoured Wild West of Cambodia (Pailin). Other stops include dining with gangsters in Russia, a medieval pig slaughter and feast in northern Portugal, the Basque All Male Gastronomique Society in Saint Sebastian, rural Mexico with his Mexican sous-chef, a pilgrimage to the French Laundry in the Napa Valley and a return to his roots in the tiny fishing village of La Teste, where he first ate an oyster as a child. Written with the inimitable machismo and humour that has made Tony Bourdain such a sensation, A Cook's Tour is an adventure story sure to give you indigestion.

Sample Book Insights: #1 I informed my boss of my plans to eat my way around the world, and he called his mother in Portugal and told her to start fattening a pig. I was going to eat everything, blood, guts, and all, during my trip to Portugal. #2 I had never been to a farm and watched as the animals were slaughtered, disemboweled, and broken down into constituent parts. It was only fair that I should have to watch as the blade went in. #3 José was a native of Portugal who had gone to New York and become a chef. He was very comfortable and engaged with food, and he loved to eat at restaurants. But he was always excited and engaged when he was at home eating with his family. #4 I was excited to eat the food that José was so passionate about, and I was dreading the pig slaughter. I had arrived in Portugal, and I had already gotten the picture that the country had plenty of good food.

Download or read book Quicklet on A Cook's Tour by Anthony Bourdain written by Shauna Korinne Patton and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-03-04 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quicklets: Your Reading Sidekick! ABOUT THE BOOK Viewed simply, A Cooks Tour is one mans quest to discover just what the perfect meal might be. Unfortunately, things are rarely so cut and dried. As Bourdains travels, at least for this book, took place pre-September 11th, there is still a little elasticity in the travel. Yes, Bourdain experiences certain moments of unease while on his journey, but not in the way that travelers are forced to take added precautions today. Food is the great equalizer: a shared passion, simply made up of different ingredients, depending on where you are in the world. It is able to evoke the strong, visceral reactions related not only to taste, but also touch, smell, sound, and sight. Given foods shared cultural arc, its not a stretch to see how something as basic as food could be considered transformative. MEET THE AUTHOR Shauna Patton grew up in the wilds of Northern California and thus removed from populous cities, she turned to the expanse of her imagination for entertainment. This would include writing short stories and plays, and roping unsuspecting friends/family into producing and performing. This led to a four year tenure at UC Santa Cruz, where she majored in Theatre Arts, with a year abroad at a University in Southern England. When not concocting crazy stories, she loves to watch movies (especially Bollywood, anything Christian Bale and 1940's film noir), read, knit, watch the Dropkick Murphy's in concert, rock out to cheesy 80's pop and hang out with friends. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Inspired by the idea of the perfect meal, Anthony Bourdains novel A Cooks Tour: Global Adventures in Extreme Cuisines is part foodie travel diary and part memoir of the man himself. Not for those with weak stomachs, Bourdain launches himself on a tour around the globe on a quest for good food, movie-style adventure and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Whether hes chowing down on the still-beating heart of a cobra in Vietnam, lamb gonads in the Sahara, haggis in Scotland, or shuddering through the horrors of birds nest soup, Bourdains food encounters offer a great sensory delight for the reader, especially secondhand. Much of the developed world is far removed from their food. There is little knowledge about the actual gathering and preparation of food, as the glossy supermarkets hide the behind-the-scenes carnage. As Bourdain notes, Respecting the ingredients may no longer be an economic necessity in much of the emerging world; it is now a pleasure, to be experienced and enjoyed at ones chosen time and place. Bourdains quest for culinary excellence is grandiose: I knew that the best meal in the world...is rarely the most sophisticated or expensive one...context and memory play powerful roles in the truly great meals in ones life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The illustrations of Brian Cook from the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s have become iconic. His heightened use of colour, in a flat colour poster style, is much imitated, but never surpassed. His jacket covers for the Batsford series of books that celebrated British life are now very collectable. This collection of his best work is a beautiful publication that should be enjoyed not only by collectors but all lovers of good design and illustration.

Book excerpt: The true adventures of David Fairchild, a turn-of-the-century food explorer who traveled the globe and introduced diverse crops like avocados, mangoes, seedless grapes—and thousands more—to the American plate. “Fascinating.”—The New York Times Book Review • “Fast-paced adventure writing.”—The Wall Street Journal • “Richly descriptive.”—Kirkus • “A must-read for foodies.”—HelloGiggles In the nineteenth century, American meals were about subsistence, not enjoyment. But as a new century approached, appetites broadened, and David Fairchild, a young botanist with an insatiable lust to explore and experience the world, set out in search of foods that would enrich the American farmer and enchant the American eater. Kale from Croatia, mangoes from India, and hops from Bavaria. Peaches from China, avocados from Chile, and pomegranates from Malta. Fairchild’s finds weren’t just limited to food: From Egypt he sent back a variety of cotton that revolutionized an industry, and via Japan he introduced the cherry blossom tree, forever brightening America’s capital. Along the way, he was arrested, caught diseases, and bargained with island tribes. But his culinary ambition came during a formative era, and through him, America transformed into the most diverse food system ever created. “Daniel Stone draws the reader into an intriguing, seductive world, rich with stories and surprises. The Food Explorer shows you the history and drama hidden in your fruit bowl. It’s a delicious piece of writing.”—Susan Orlean, New York Times bestselling author of The Orchid Thief and The Library Book

Book excerpt: "I could not have written A Cook's Tour without this book. There is so much I would have missed. So dig in. Enjoy… Eat. Eat adventurously. Miss nothing. It's all here in these pages." --From the Foreword by Anthony Bourdain Sit down for a meal with the locals on six continents--what they are eating may surprise you. Extreme Cuisine examines eating habits across the globe, showing once and for all that one man's road kill is another man's delicacy! "I've tried to make this book a guide to how the other half dines and why. Over a period of twenty-five years I've augmented my meat-and-potatoes upbringing in the United States to try a wide variety of regional specialties, from steamed water beetles, fried grasshoppers and ants, to sparrow, bison and crocodile. I've eaten deep-fried bull's testicles in Mexico, live shrimp sushi in Hawaii, mice cooked over an open wood fire in Thailand, pig stomach soup in Singapore, minced water buffalo and yak butter tea in Nepal, stir-fried dog tongue, and "five penis wine" in China." --From the introduction by Jerry Hopkins Dive headfirst into food culture from around the world. Join author Jerry Hopkins on a culinary and cultural tour as he explores foods that may seem bizarre, and often off-putting, to us. As he says, "What is considered repulsive to someone in one part of the world, in another part of the world is simply considered lunch." Part travelogue, part cultural commentary and history, and part cookbook (yes, really), with Extreme Cuisine anyone can become an adventurous eater--or at least learn what it's like to be one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When people in First World countries think of tourists in the vast expanses of the Third World today, they typically think of pampered westerners, filling up the luxury hotels and imposing their Orientalist gazes on the teeming masses. As David Gladstone shows us in this fascinating and provocative book, such preconceptions are wrong. Coupling incisive and colorful ethnographic accounts of tourism in India and Mexico with sharp analysis, Gladstone demonstrates the amazing complexity of this industry, which now comprises close to ten percent of the world economy. As he also shows, the vast majority of tourists in the Third World are indigenous people with few resources-often making pilgrimages to religious shrines. From Pilgrimage to Package Tour is a fresh and entirely original account that stands tourism studies on its head and proves that this industry is far more complicated than it initially appears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating is a certified "foodie" classic. In it, Fergus Henderson -- whose London restaurant, St. John, is a world-renowned destination for people who love to eat "on the wild side" -- presents the recipes that have marked him out as one of the most innovative, yet traditional, chefs. Here are recipes that hark back to a strong rural tradition of delicious thrift, and that literally represent Henderson's motto, "Nose to Tail Eating" -- be they Pig's Trotter Stuffed with Potato, Rabbit Wrapped in Fennel and Bacon, or his signature dish of Roast Bone Marrow and Parsley Salad. For those of a less carnivorous bent, there are also splendid dishes such as Deviled Crab; Smoked Haddock, Mustard, and Saffron; Green Beans, Shallots, Garlic, and Anchovies; and to keep the sweetest tooth happy, there are gloriously satisfying puddings, notably the St. John Eccles Cakes, and a very nearly perfect Chocolate Ice Cream.

Book excerpt: A wildly hilarious and irreverent memoir of a globe-trotting life lived meal-to-meal by one of our most influential and respected food critics As the son of a diplomat growing up in places like Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan, Adam Platt didn’t have the chance to become a picky eater. Living, traveling, and eating in some of the most far-flung locations around the world, he developed an eclectic palate and a nuanced understanding of cultures and cuisines that led to some revelations which would prove important in his future career as a food critic. In Tokyo, for instance—“a kind of paradise for nose-to-tail cooking”—he learned that “if you’re interested in telling a story, a hair-raisingly bad meal is much better than a good one." From dim sum in Hong Kong to giant platters of Peking duck in Beijing, fresh-baked croissants in Paris and pierogi on the snowy streets of Moscow, Platt takes us around the world, re-tracing the steps of a unique, and lifelong, culinary education. Providing a glimpse into a life that has intertwined food and travel in exciting and unexpected ways, The Book of Eating is a delightful and sumptuous trip that is also the culinary coming-of-age of a voracious eater and his eventual ascension to become, as he puts it, “a professional glutton.”
