Finally reading Kitchen Confidential...

So I'm finally reading Kitchen Confidential. Bourdain's braggadocio never really appealed to me, but I have to admit his first book is really amusing. As he says in the introduction, it's a book for the cooks. If you've ever worked in the food service industry, you'll probably snicker knowingly at a lot of his descriptions.

What I don't understand is why he is so intent on bad mouthing vegetarians. It must be mostly a publicity stunt. Anyway I think he's lost the debate. Listen to his conversation with Jonathan Safran-Foer (author of Eating Animals) and see what you think.
