Anthony Bourdain


My girlfriend says she has lost me to “Tony”, Anthony Bourdain who rose to fame for his 2000 New York Times bestselling book “Kitchen Confidential.” He has since been responsible for the Travel channel shows “No Reservations” and “The Layover” which can be enjoyed on youtube “here”

Devouring all the episodes like an adolescent discovering pornography for the first time, I travel with him and his wise cracks all over the globe. He is like your favourite heavy drinking, hard living uncle who has wrestled with alligators and has somehow lived to tell the tale. He makes me want to travel, experience, taste and suck the marrow out of life. He is not for everyone, but he makes me smile.
