    Loved his stuff.  Kitchen Confidential was so great....and he seemed to be so comfortable being himself. Clearly.......not.
    Crap.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    RIP Anthony Bourdain 

    I'm crying like I knew him

    Yeah this one really sucks.

    Through his books and show, you felt like you knew the guy.

    he did good and important work. Opened people to places and cultures that were not accessible. He tried to make the world a more understanding place.
      
    my wife also credits him for her having a clean kitchen after I cook. In Kitchen confidential he stressed the importance of cooking clean and dry and I have gone by that ever since, which was 10 or so years ago when I really started cooking as a hobby

    Hard to believe. Devastated. Anywhere I go I always check where Bourdain ate.

    A good two weeks for food and drink.
    My dear friend from Brazil is visiting, and he brought Brazilian food and drink with him.

    Paçoquita is ground peanuts and sugar and salt pressed into a bar and it's amazing.  Any peanut lover must watch for it in international markets.
    Goiabada is a fruit paste made from goiaba (guava) fruit and it's delicious as well.  It's like a gooey fruit leather.
    Doce de leite (pronounced exactly as leche) is a soft dippable caramel, very good and milky.  

    He also brought Heisenbahn and Brahma beers, but more importantly, he brought some good Cachaça!!! (Pronounced "kashasa")
    It is a signature Brazilian spirit fermented from sugar cane juice, so it's similar to rum but different.  
    Tomorrow we go out on the boat and drink caipirinha (ky-peereenya) cocktails. 
    Cachaça and ice with muddled lime and sugar.
    I can't wait, I haven't had un caipirinha in 5 years.
    This is all awesome. Do report back.  I have heard for caipirinhas but have never had one.

    A long story surrounding those drinks at a swanky fundraiser I went to back in the day.  The ending of the story has me informed the next morning by my wife (then gf) that I bid $10,000 on a puppy during the auction.  
    Luckily, I was outbid.  (And I was the one that arranged for the puppy to be donated for the fund raiser....meaning I could have just bought one at cost from a friend who owned a private pet store.)
    Good luck with those!

    So Twitter says it wasn’t a suicide. Hillary Clinton and Harvey Weinstein took him out. Thought everyone should know the truth.
