Appetites: A Cookbook: Anthony Bourdain

A great book with amazing recipes. Has some interesting recipes and definitely isn't a run of the mill book with the token recipes thrown in. Each recipe has a story behind it and has some interesting Italian recipes. Book quality is top of the line and arrived in perfect conditions. Great for any Anthony Bourdain fans and even has a few personal stories.

What an idea to have Ralph Steadman design the cookbook cover, an idea so fantastic that only Anthony Bourdain could have come up with it. I have yet to try the recipes, but being someone who eats everything and anything, I am pretty certain that I will love it. If nothing else, buy it for the great writing and the even better and unusual photos!

Anthony Bourdain is one of the most important people when it comes to food culture. His non-fiction publications, coupled with his stunning series has changed the way the world thinks about food. This cookbook comprises some of the knowledge he has gained since he took to the road. It includes recipes from all around the world, made more accessible to unfortunate people such as myself, who do not have an Asian market in the vicinity. I would suggest this book to anyone with an interest in food and travel: each recipe takes you in a different part of the world. It is well worth its excellent price.

Really good to cook by. Enjoyed by the two little chefs in our house.

Great book, great pictures, simple easy to follow recipes, not cooked anything from it yet, got it more as a fan.

We regularly use the book, recipes can be intense but the payoff is worth it!

My son is a big fan of the late Anthony Bourdain and often watches his TV program Parts Unknown. Got him the book as a Christmas present. Looking forward to sampling some meals soon

This book is so good, on so many levels, as a good read, as a recipe book, make you laugh, & it looks good.Had to buy one for my brother !!

It's beautiful, the pics are fantastic, and it doesn't make me feel sloppy because the book comes with its own splotches on every page. Apart from that, the writing, the recipes.... everything is amazing.

I got this book just because..well Anthony Bourdain. Loved his raw, genuine style. The book looks good, quality cover/paper. The inside has mostly basic recipes described in the author’s style of writing. Measurements for recipes are in American sizes. I choose only 3 recipes to cook from the book, but I am happy with my purchase as I simply wanted to have smth from A.B in my book collection.

Beautiful condition. It is even better in person than the photos. The artwork is incredible. I purchased as a gift for my husband who has been a long time fan of Anthony. I went back and forth between this or an autobiography of sorts. Ultimately, this felt like more of a connection to Anthony while also serving a purpose. I only skimmed it, but I liked the little quips and reasonings behind the recipe that also surface level dove into some life philosophies that Anthony carried. Although some of it seemingly silly, a true fan will appreciate getting to connect in this way. I’m sure the recipes will be made, but that was not my main intention for the gift so take that for what you’d like.

Book impeccable and delivered faster than the Amazon delivery tracker could keep up

The book is perfect from front to back, the recipes are great, the stories are great. It's exactly what you expect it to be and the quality of the pages and cover is excellent.
