Very entertaining, and interesting to learn more about Bourdain. Especially since I think of him mostly in terms of his shows, and he wrote this before he even started making shows. It's easy to forget that famous chefs all had to start somewhere.

He's really great at telling stories and narrating. I zoned out quite a bit as usual, but I didn't often rewind, because his narrative voice is so clear, I still fully absorbed the gist.

Good stuff. 👍🏻
