About This Item
New York, New York, U.S.A. : Bloomsbury USA, 2007. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Very Fine/As New. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. More than just a companion to the hugely popular Travel Channel show, NO RESERVATIONS is Bourdain's fully illustrated journal of his far-flung travels. The book traces his trips from New Zealand to New Jersey and everywhere in between, mixing beautiful, never-before-seen photos and mementos with Bourdain's outrageous commentary on what really happens when you give a bad-boy chef an open ticket to the world. Want to know where to get good fatty crab in Rangoon? How to order your reindeer medium rare? How to tell a Frenchman that his baguette is invading your personal space? For any Bourdain fan, NO RESERVATIONS is an indispensable opportunity to hit the road with the man himself. Very fine, first edition, first printing, in as new, mylar-protectedted dust jacket. [Not remainder-marked or price-clipped] NF94

Reviews
On Jun 8 2018, a reader said:
I had purchased the book, got a confirmation email and no more than 30 minutes later had gotten an email saying it had been sold out. I purchased the book and it had been sold out so I was unable to recieve the book. I am extremely disappointed and feel cheated. I collect many first editions and this is one of the worst experiences and worst sellers I have ever had the misfortune to work with.
