Would recommend: Maybe

So, obvious things first: this book is full of profanity and graphic descriptions, but I think that's what Bourdain is kind of known for. However, I enjoyed this book well enough, despite all of that, and I am further confirmed that I never want to work in a restaurant kitchen, not that that was ever a strong urge for me. To me, the most impressive part of this book was Bourdain's consistent style throughout. I'd definitely use this as an example of strong tone and voice.
