THE BOOK The book, released in 2000 , is both Bourdain's professional Memoir and a behind-the-scenes look at restaurant kitchens. THE TELEVISION SERIES The , 2005 , Fox cancelled the series outright. QUOTATION : ''What most people don't get about professional-level cooking is that it is not at all about the best recipe, the most innovative presentation, the most creative marriage of ingredients, flavors and textures; that, presumably, was all arranged long before you sat down to dinner. Line cooking — the real business of preparing the food you eat — is more about consistency, about mindless, unvarying repetition, the same series of tasks performed over and over and over again in exactly the same way. The last thing a chef wants in a line cook is an innovator ... . Chefs require blind, near-fanatical loyalty, a strong back and an automaton-like consistency of execution under battlefield conditions.'' EXTERNAL LINKS |
