Matheus Machado matheusvid15f4 — ** spoiler alert ** I wanted to love this book, and perhaps that is why I am only giving it two stars: it was a disapointment. I love travel, and I love food, so this should have been the perfect recipe for me (despite the fact that Mr. Bourdain harbors vehement disdain for vegetarians). What ultimately annoyed me about this book was its organization. The author began by saying that he was looking for the perfect meal -- a combination of food, atmosphere, excitement, all that would culminate in a perfectly memorable experience. I was hooked. Then he opens the scene in Vietnam with Mr. Boudain trying to outdrink some venerable elders of the community. And during the story, we visit Japan, Portugal, Cambodia, Russia etc. But, for some reason, in between several of these chapters, we keep returning back to Vietnam. The reader is left to wonder if Mr. Bourdain visited Vietnam multiple times or if he is just a disorganized scatter-brain who failed to employ a good editor. In any event, the accounts of his adventures are fascinating --eating the still beating heart of a cobra, his near-death experience in eating pufferfish (though not as near-death as he had hoped), drinking himself silly in Russia and then diving into ice-cold lakes with other Russians, and witnessing several slaughters for the first time.

Briana Johnson brijo0220318a — very good book! especially for those who like historical fiction. there was just enough politics & history for the story to seem real but also enough emotion from the characters to make the book a very good read that i would definitely recommend!
