Geheimtipps fürs Reisen - vom beliebten Küchenchef und Globetrotter'So viele gute Momente des Reisens hängen unmittelbar davon ab, ob man ein menschliches Gesicht mit dem Ziel verbinden kann. Davon, was man dort isst und welche Erinnerungen man behält. Am besten ist es, wenn jede Skepsis verschwindet. Wenn man die Vergangenheit und seine vorgefasste Meinung fallen lässt. Wenn man die eigene Person - seine Überheblichkeit und sein Misstrauen, die Ironie und den Zweifel - zumindest für eine Weile vergisst. Wenn man für ein paar Momente oder auch für ein paar Stunden ein anderer Mensch ist.'- Anthony Bourdain

In Appetites stellt Anthony Bourdain seine Lieblingsgerichte vor, die ihm schon während seiner Kindheit, später in seiner Karriere als Koch und natürlich auf seinen Reisen ans Herz gewachsen sind. Doch Appetites ist weit mehr als ein Kochbuch. Es ist ein Kunstwerk. Ein Manifest. Eine Reflexion über das (richtige) Leben und ein Schlachtplan für die Küche, der dabei hilft, Gäste mit atemberaubender Effizienz in Schrecken zu versetzen. Die Fotos sind rebellisch, frech, ungeschönt, unkonventionell. Sie zeigen, wie es in einer Küche wirklich zugeht, und zelebrieren Bourdains Bad-Boy-Image auf schaurig-schöne Weise. Die Gerichte schmecken dennoch fantastisch und sollten - in Bourdains Augen - wirklich von jedem gekocht werden können.

Das Kochen ist vom Handwerk zum Hobby und schließlich zur Lifestyle-Rubrik mutiert - zur quotenheischenden Wohlfühlberieselung. In seinem neuen Buch rechnet Anthony Bourdain mit diesem »Imperium der Mittelmäßigkeit« ab und erinnert daran, was in einer Küche fließen muss: nicht Balsamicoreduktion, sondern Blut, Schweiß und Tränen.
