This is amazing. Most people don't know (nor did Roadrunner mention it) that he was essentially a fledgling writer for years before he found fame with Kitchen Confidential. At the time this book was a flop, he went into debt over it.

Bourdain had tight control on his past. He always wanted his legend to be presented in a certain way. His mother was a key figure in publishing.

@@JoelyPera The book tour was entirely self funded by doing everything he could to get press on it. If you don't have a publisher to support your book launch you either pay for it yourself or let the book die. Kitchen Confidential obviously changed everything for him.

Listen to Laurie Woolever's audio book of his biography... You get to hear from Bigfoot, Adam Last-name-unknown, Dimitri, Gladys Bourdain... So many friends and family. Insightful and dense. I'm on my 10th or so listen

One Fifth Ave (where he worked in NYC) is still in the business in 2023. Many, many of the places he visited throughout his 3 TV shows, A Cook's Tour, No Reservations and Parts Unknown are no longer in business but this place is still getting good reviews over 25 years later.

The late Connie Martinson certainly had an eye for talent. Anthony Bourdain was an unknown back in 1995.

Great vintage Bourdain interview ! great insight into the book , I had heard of it but had know idea of what it was actually about, sounds like it could have transformed into a film project .
