    Me too. I'd love to travel with him. :)

    I do hope this Bourdain thread stays longer than any of the other ones that have been up. Absolultely love this guy, the person I'd most want to hang with. I can't get enough of his shows, both new and old, and just finished reading Kitchen Confidential. Great on TV, great author, and just the best thing TV has going on nowadays.

    I love how he goes and hangs out with some tribe deep in the jungle, and eat all sorts off the wall shit, I want to do that.

    now did cook's tour evolve into no reservations or was it a different show?
    love both of them btw...


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

    Cook's Tour was on Food Network and they decided not to renew his contract. So he took the idea from that show and spun it for the Travel Channel.

    Weird Dude for sure.

    He looks like he'd be fun to smoke marlboro's with and hang out at the strip club though.

    Love this show - so much better than the "Bizzare Foods" show that is supposed to be similar...that one's just icky!

    And Anthony seems like he would be a lot of fun to hang out with! And yes, part of that is the fact that he does drink a lot!

    I saw a show where he came up to the Pacific Northwest and they cooked a bunch of gooey-ducks right on the beach. Thought that was pretty cool :)

  • My two favorite episodes so far are Sicily and Argentina. I always get the impression that him and his crew are baked on local greenery. And I'm not talking about brussel sprouts in the oven I'm talking about weed in the bong. Which makes him even more likeable.:)

    I read part of a book by him, and I didn't like it. However, I like No Reservations. I think he has a lot of talent.

    Nasty Bits?
    I don't think so. It may have been an article. It was just very abrasive, which makes sense. He is still abrasive on screen, but he also recognizes his role as culinary ambassador. At least it seems that way to me.

    So...

    - You travel all over the world
    - You meet different people from different cultures every week
    - You get hammered with them
    - You eat all sorts of delicious dishes with different origins
    - They pay you a shitload of money for doing it

    Where do I sign? That must be the best job description EVER: "Occupation: Whatever Anthony Bourdain does"

    LOVE THIS SHOW!!! Been obsessed with it since I got back from my Asian trip (Fell in love with Hong Kong).

    I wish I had a job like that :(

    I know! I want to become a food writer when I watch that show, but then I realize my foodie path should be coming to an end, but then I realize I don't want it to come to an end because I want to eat the best pizza throughout the world, but then I realize I don't have the money to eat the best pizza throughout the world . . .I feel conflicted when I watch that show.

    You would have the money to eat the best pizza throughout the world if Anthony Bourdain gave you a job as part of his crew ;)
