Love it when Anthony Bourdain makes fun of the p**** Food Channel talent, which should also go for the fans that actually watch that channel....
Tony is freaking awesome. You ever watch his first show that was actually on the food network? There's a lot of reasons why he doesn't exactly care for that channel. The TV version of "A Cook's Tour" was nowhere near as good as the book (mostly because he simply wasn't allowed to air many things) but it was still interesting.
No I missed that. I knew from the show that he was an author....I never thought about getting his book, is it really that good. Isnt it about him working in the restaraunt business for years. Guy is really intelligent would definitley be cool to hang with and party...could you imagine the stories he could tell.
I believe his original book was Kitchen Confidential, is there another one that the show was based on? I saw him give lecture deal at the Midland in KC. Hilarious. After they had a cocktail reception for the highrollers
and the people like me pretending to be high-rollers at the Bristol. The food was ridiculously legit and the drinks were free.
Got to meet him and talk to him a bit, but mostly was in it to eat. Dont know what to say to someone in that situation. Would much rather have a beer and talk for a while. Really cool night though.
