Mixed Feelings
I read Kitchen Confidential a few years after it came out, and really liked the book. I would frequently tune into No Reservations, and liked the early seasons. As I continued to watch, which included Parts Unknown, I got increasingly irritated with Bourdain. Increased pontification with a sense of righteousness frequently became the theme. It had a level of meanest coming through. Obviously he has demons, but the movie kinda fell short, and touched over his faults.
