I bought this after reading about how this is a book to buy that will make a competent cook a BETTER cook and I have to sayI believe. And there are many high-quality illustrations that were new to me. There are hundreds of good cookbooks, but Bourdain joins the very select rank, along with Alton Brown and Wayne Harley Brachman
