Anthony Bourdain A Cooks Tour Season 1 Episode 1: A Taste of Tokyo

[@xcalybur75]

He lived it, he loved it, there was nothing fake about Anthony. He will be forever missed.

[@Becks23medusa]

Yes, everything yes, 😞

[@FoodXBert]

Yes. He will be missed. I still can't believe he is gone.

[@glenndecker1645]

I miss him. He was excellent. I'm so sad.

Amen & very well said

Murdered due to Epstien allegations against his wife. I don't know. Either way he was always a favorite.

[@reniecoffey]

As a child and young teenager I never thought about just how much Anthony Bourdain shaped the way I view not only food, but the world, and life. I didn't grow up watching Disney or Nickelodeon. I grew up on Anthony Bourdain. His death is a deep loss and I wish I would have realized sooner just how much his philosophy matters to me

If you grew up as a kid without cable or satellite I feel like you likely have a connection to both Anthony and Andrew zimmern, they showed me the world. Anthony taught me how to be authentically cool and chic while doing it that you could have a style and art in everything you do that shines though to everyone and Andrew taught me to approach mundane things with the same interest and enthusiasm as an adventure, an often he’d turn something normal and mundane into something great, even if just for a moment

[@mollyjoy7820]

Travel. Eat. Educate.

[@willkursavka]

He's so different in these early episodes, he smiles A LOT more and has a glint in his eye like a child. By the end of Parts Unknown he always looked exhausted and agitated, you could tell the pressure from his fame and his permanent internal struggle always to be a perfectionist whilst being authentic and honest was wearing him down... I loved all his work so much and will always miss him x

[@stuartrobertson5062]

I think Bourdains true gift was communication, both in words and beyond words through body language. All of the interactions have a genuine touch to them that so few people can achieve on TV.

[@bambamermitanyo1049]

Empathy, humane, listening

[@TokyoBlue587]

He just genuinely loved and respected people, cuisines and cultures.

[@coastcity7029]

Damn dude it's almost like you don't know he became famous for being an author.

Having Tony on before bed is so relaxing. How lucky we are to have the amount of shows he did.

Anthony has just changed his energy state...he's still around! Love ya Tony!

[@stefanschuchardt5734]

Life is constant transformation. Nothing is lost. Nothing is gained.

[@venividivixen]

It's incredible watching Tony where he started. He hadn't traveled much until this show and you can see the genuine child-like awe in his face when he's experiencing something for the first time. The later years' suave and swagger hadn't set in by these episodes but he was no less interesting back then.

[@alEE4l]

RIP to the legend. There will never be another. Half man, half rock and roll.

[@clw4]

Bourdain changed my life, and helped me fall in love with cooking. A man I never met, had a huge impact on my life and this is the show that started it. I appreciate him for taking us along with him on his journey.

[@earnesac]

Such a natural story teller- his voice and use of words is just intoxicating.

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

[@bennyboy0421]

After he passed, I couldn’t watch his show because it hurt my heart. I'm so glad I can enjoy watching his shows again. Thank you for opening my eyes to so many possibilities!

one word legend....this man paved the way for vloggers of all kinds....this series was him with a friend and a camera....a first vlog.....man was a pure genius and poet.....his voice over is 2nd to none

[@les7213]

This show is so wholesome, the type of show that awakens the senses without prejudice or deceit. Anthony Bourdain was honest and real, the transparency with which he represented the places and the people he met was unmatched. I wish more journalists or people in general were more like him these days.

[@ddmau7995]

Too bad he ran into nontransparent democrats

[@ashleyyyy314]

The production and editing is so 2002 it hurts but prime Bourdain in his element is a great thing to see, well idk about prime TV wise, he became better at hosting, but his enthusiasm and love for food and kitchen is at its peak I feel. Love this

[@VLAD_P_]

Sadly I only started to really follow his videos after he passed away , but their is something so genuine about this man . He was super famous but not a slight bit of arrogance or self importance about him . Seems like he would be a great guy to sit down with , have a cold beer & some great food .. Really sad about his loss :(

[@Moonlight-mz7mu]

I consider Anthony Bourdain an artist. These episodes and his vast work he left behind contains his spirit forever. It makes me so emotional. I learned about him late, but i truly understand what he was about and his energy pierced through me and now has forever changed the way i view food and the world around me. I grew up watching travel and food shows with my dad and always embracing new cultures and food. Learning of Anthony felt like fate, even though we never met. He will live forever in my eyes. I will being going to japan soon and with him in mind.

[@sekim8695]

11:50 my heart dropped when he said he was ready to die, miss him so much

Right? The voiceover is the best.

[@judithlehman9122]

I loved and laughed watching Anthony do his thing. Still my favorite shows of all times. I remember more from his shows than any other I have watched in my 84 years. Broke my heart when he died, it still hurts. He was a delightful, amazing honest human being.

[@YolandaSmith-zs1rl]

His comprehension, compassion and empathy translated through his interest in learning about all the culture. He truly wanted to connect with people and people felt that connection. He knew how to bring people together through food. Brilliant

[@alexishumilo]

I remember that day when we lost Chef Tony. I was working in a fast food place and we were all shook up. His inspiration is everywhere. I tried to end my own life since then because of health and surgeries, but I will make you proud, whatever form you are now...we will meet in my dreams and eventually. Love ya

[@marjoriejohnson6535]

If you don't have strings holding you down..get yourself out of fast food and into a real restraunt..evenvif you have to start by washing dishes..live simply and learn. Maybe you don't have the luxury of being sent to a chef school but the CIA has a fantastic cookbook...can't afford it..get yourself a library card.....50 years ago I was a young wife,mother working as a prep chef, and on the line...I didn't miss it when I left because I had a garden, a dairy goat, organic fowl nearby .a kitchen I designed for actual cooking/ baking and an audience . But now ..flat on my back I miss all of the hubub....funny thing ...my daughter that I thought could care less about food now runs/ owns a small restraunt/ pub. Good luck to you ...keep learning, keep striving..,and unlike Anthony ..know this..you are enough.

[@AK-yw9qs]

In my view, he is the greatest storyteller ever, with simple food, simple locations and simple people, everyone can relate to his stories.

[@01maggie]

Isn't this what meals are all about?? Family, friends gathering , sharing delicious food. Anthony brought this into our homes at a time when family meals together were fading away. My favorite time is eating with friends, have some drinks and great conversation!!

*Thank you, GoTraveler for uploading this entire series.* 👍🏻 I remember when this show first came out on cable in 2002 and I was absolutely hooked. Tony Bourdain was such a clever, witty, often humorous and dramatic, simply fantastic and skillfully descriptive story teller. He'll forever live on in the hearts of many of us Foodies. I personally, miss him more than I can say. He was like family to me, even though I never met him in person. I love re-watching these episodes, now streaming on KZbin! 👍🏻👌🏻💖 RIP Tony! 🕊💖

RIP anothony

[@bambamermitanyo1049]

it was a staged cia assassination, not a sexual accident

[@paulabaker8403]

Tony Bourdain was allowed into experiencing culture that few have ever known about. Anthony knew how privileged he was and he showed it in respect and honour. I am so happy he brought us along. I fibd it still, so difficult to accept the fact that he took his own life. It doesn't make sense especially when he had a 9 year old daughter at home a a new love. Whatever happened, I will always love Anthony Bourdain. ❤❤

[@LoveLjubav]

Forever Anthony. 🌹

[@thefunkstone5153]

Bourdain is one of few people that lived that regret never being able to meet. My Dad bought me a copy of Kitchen Confidential when I was in high school that led me to over a decade working as a chef. Cook free or die!

[@lindajfrank3498]

I so remember watching his first show. What a beautiful man. I so enjoyed his shows ☺ and learned so much from him. The food and countries he visited was so memorable. I started watching his first shows. So much learned and enjoyed. Miss you wonderful man. Hugs and love you.

I've never met him and yet I miss him greatly. I learned so much about food, traveling and how to appreciate life from his example.

[@pipertheos2660]

He will never truly leave us- there's still too much good food! Miss you Tony.

[@BourdainsFlavors]

Anthony Bourdain had a unique point of view that set him apart: he saw the world through the lens of connection and shared humanity. He believed that food was a universal language, a way to tell stories and understand cultures without barriers. To him, every place and person had value, and he approached even the most unfamiliar situations with respect, curiosity, and an open heart. Bourdain's perspective rejected judgment and embraced diversity, reminding us that the world is richer when seen through empathetic eyes. This worldview, combined with his philosophy and fearless storytelling, ensures there will never be another like him. RiP Tony ❤

Well, i'm here. Dude was awesome. Made life better.

What I like is the way he talked. The way he explained everything with vivid, colorful words.

[@mammontustado9680]

I like that the Tony we see here is shy, world-weary and a bit unsure of himself. Then by the time of Parts Unknown, he's got this gritty but gentle aura about him, grizzled and alot wiser.

[@jtotheroc]

This is the man that inspired me to open my palette when it came to eating new foods. Foie Gras, escargot, bone marrow, natto, durian fruit, etc. Anthony Bourdain will always be a legend, and his legacy will always live on in the episodes of A Cooks Tour, No Reservations, and his show on CNN.

[@GoTraveler]

That is awesome!

Really enjoyed it again. This was his favorite food in the world and I can see why!! RIP Chef

[@Widderic]

He inspired me to go to Japan in 2017. I made the same face when trying sushi over there. I laughed, I cried, it was like being high for the first time. I can't find good sushi anymore so I have to go back.

I was always somewhat adventurous with food, thanks to my mother. There were a few things I just couldn't get into though, sushi being one. Then I saw this episode when it came out and decided to find a good sushi place and try again. I LOVED it! Thank you Anthony, for showing all of us that food in all its forms could be exciting, comforting and even transformative. I've taken a whole new approach to food thanks to you, and I'm better for it.
