We can thank, or villify, Bourdain for taking the 'back of the house'
out of the closet and bringing it into the light of day.
People had no idea what really went on in restaurant kitchens till his
book came out.
Whether the revelations were a good or a bad thing depends on which
side of the kitchen doors you are on.

I do like the man though. He's grown on me over the years.

I'm with you on this. He does grow on you. And, the biggest thing that
impresses is the fact he admits he has warts and skeletons in his closet and
makes no denials or excuses, he is what he is.

I just read a blog posting on one of his latest rants. He's trying to
convince his young child the 'evils' of fast food. Hilarious.

The guy's long winded. A word non-smith. He could say what he wants
to say using 1/10th of the number of words he used. If that.

They didn't? How about _Down and Out in Paris and London_ by George
Orwell, or Ludwig Bemelmans's stories, later collected in _Hotel
Bemelmans_ and _La Bonne Table_?

Well, there's a difference in a "tell all" and fiction. I think
most people didn't see Orwell or Bemelman as reality.
