A Cook's Tour by Anthony Bourdain

[missingvolume]

Part travel book part ode to food, this book was highly entertaining. I watch No Reservations on the Travel Channel hosted by Anthony Bourdain. I enjoyed his personality and wit on the show so I decided to pick up some of his nonfiction books (he has also written some mysteries). This book left me feeling hungry and having an itchy travel foot. The nice thing is each chapter is a separate adventure so you it makes for easy stopping points. One of the things he covers is the Tokyo Fish Market. I so want to go there. The description of him sitting on a frozen tuna having fresh tuna carved off another fish left me wanting tuna sashimi. Also his descriptions of Vietnamese Pho has me very curious about how great it is. This is a great book for foodies and travel buffs and if you are both then it is even better.
