By now you've probably read a bunch of negative reviews, so no point in rehashing it. Bottom line, this book is disappointing. It was a Holiday 2021 money grab. This book was written mostly by Laurie Woolever. The format is alphabetical by country. With a few pages (sometimes very few) on cities visited. A little intro, a half a page on how to get from the airport to the city, one or two restaurant descriptions, and a word on the accommodations, mostly the outrageously expensive 5-star places Anthony liked, and most of us will never experience. Bourdain's words are in bold blue text, and seem to be taken from his various TV episodes. I guarantee it will leave you wanting more.
