Globetrotting food raconteur Anthony Bourdain has released new details on a North American tour that will hit 15 cities and help promote his first cookbook in more than 10 years.

To coincide with the release of Appetites, Bourdain – best known as the former enfant terrible of the food world and the irreverent host of the CNN series Parts Unknown – has announced plans to hit the road this fall in a live tour and stage act.
