I'm a huge fan of the book Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain, so when I saw Sophia Chang's posters featuring the former chef of New York's Les Halles, I was ecstatic.

Anthony Bourdain became famous for writing an honest, [tell-all book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bold-fork-books) and has since then become a travel host bouncing from place to place [eating exotic food](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-tours) in his show 'No Reservations.' Sophia Chang decided to pay homage to the show and the chef by immortalizing him in a series of [incredible posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paul-anthony-smith). All the prints feature Bourdain in an outline with a backdrop of a city that he's visited in the past seven seasons. These are limited editions, with each poster signed by the man himself. If you want a piece of the Anthony Bourdain: No Reservation series, I suggest you grab one now.
