This is a wonderfully written story that has everything from murder and intrigue to romance, forbidden love. It is awesome. I really enjoy the detail provided by the book on historical figures as well. I highly recommend this read.

Moving and Powerful

This is a beautifully told story of overcoming our childhood traumas and hardships. A story of self discovery, by a strong, powerful, and beautiful soul. I highly recommend.

Very Interesting Book

Revisado: 08-31-16

What did you love best about Kitchen Confidential?

I really enjoyed Tony Bourdain reading his own book. His style reminded me of the style/tone of detectives in old black and white movies. The stories from his childhood through his career as a chef truly gave me a new perspective of who he is and what he is about.

What other book might you compare Kitchen Confidential to and why?

This book is to autobiography and the culinary field what Vinnie Tortorich's book, Fitness Confidential, is to autobiography and the diet/fitness field. I actually read Fitness Confidential first and, based on what I knew of Mr. Bourdain from his television programs and Mr. Tortorich's praise of Mr. Bourdain's book, I decided to have a listen. No regrets. I enjoyed both books thoroughly.

Have you listened to any of Anthony Bourdain’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was the first of Mr. Bourdain's audio books I've listened to. Although, I have another in my listening queue ready to go.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

The road to culinary awareness and appreciation.

Any additional comments?

I truly enjoyed this book.

Great Book but needs Companion Material

Revisado: 01-04-16

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I think the audiobooks are an easy way for busy people with any sort of commute to get the information their looking for without taking any additional time from their schedule. This book has a ton of great information.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Dr. Petrucci, of course. This question really doesn't apply to this book

Have you listened to any of Erin Bennett’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not listened to any of Ms. Bennett's prior performances. She was easy to understand but a little monotone.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The sections of the book that speak to the success of others using the plan are inspirational.

Any additional comments?

This book has a lot of great information that supports making healthy change in your life whether you need to lose weight, improve gut health, or just want to make some generally healthy changes in your diet. The one draw back is that there are a ton of recipes in the book that I didn't need to have "read" to me. I think it would have been best to provide a supplemental download containing those recipes and just skip reading them.

Great Children's story

Revisado: 05-01-15

My 10-year-old daughter and I listen to this audio book while we read along with a book she checked out from the library. It was a very interesting, well paced read. I highly recommend it to all of those old and young.

Amazing Mental Juice!

Revisado: 01-20-15

This book not only provides the very inspirational story of Vinnie Tortorich, but provides great information on a no sugars, no grains lifestyle and our ability to put a little life into living. It's entertaining, informative, and inspirational! I am very excited to read his next book once it is released. This is a must read!
