Very much not my usual fare, but I really enjoyed the writing in this book. Bourdain's style is quoits distinctive, with a brashness and carefully crafted honesty that is actually a joy to read. If he's passionate about something, I'll read it.
That being said, his part memoir, part homage and part rant about the restaurant industry is interesting in its tint and well worth a read if you, like me, appreciate food.
