Before stunning the world with his bestsellingKitchen Confidential, and hit TV showsParts UnknownandNo Reservations, Anthony Bourdain spent years serving some of the best French brasserie food in New York. With its no-nonsense, down-to-earth atmosphere, Les Halles matched Bourdain’s style perfectly: a restaurant where you can dress down, talk loudly, drink a little too much wine, and have a good time with friends.

Bourdain teaches you everything you need to know to prepare classic French bistro fare. While you’re being guided, in simple steps, through recipes like roasted veal short ribs and steak frites, escargots aux noix and foie gras au pruneaux, you’ll feel like he’s in the kitchen beside youfiring off a few insults when you’ve scorched the sauce, and then patting you on the back for finally getting the steak tartare right.
As practical as it is entertaining, Anthony Bourdain’s handsomely repackagedLes Halles Cookbookand new foreword from Gabrielle Hamilton make for a can’t-miss treat for cookbook lovers, aspiring chefs, and Bourdain fans everywhere.
