- Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly. This collection of strange and wild, but completely true, stories from Bourdain’s extensive restaurant experience was updated in 2007.
- Typhoid Mary: An Urban Historical. I’m not sure how much of a historian Bourdain was on the whole, but when you have a seedy story about a cook who spread disease throughout the greater New York area during the early 1900s, it only makes sense that he would be the one to tell it.
