Munchies: Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain of No Reservations takes us on a brass-knuckled culinary tour of New York. He starts us off with amazing cured meats and cheese at Salumeria Rosi before heading to the distinguished Wakamba cocktail lounge. After a few beers to cleanse the palate, we end the night with one of the best pieces of meat we've ever had at Bourdain's old base of operations, Brasserie Les Halles.

[@fellspoint9364]

Bourdain was a seasoned junky at many levels and , like all pros , he was forever chasing that high until he just bummed out. At that topped off point no amount of money, dope, food or fame can trip those receptors again and he knew it was time to leave the party. And he showed himself out. Selfish ? Sure, but also courageous.

How the fck can you miss someone you've never meet in your life? Yet, I do miss Mr. Bourdain. While working as host at a popular downtown Chicago restaurant, I read Kitchen Confidential and it inspired me to attend culinary college. Some of the work values highlighted in that book I unknowingly adopted as my own, having read it five times. Watching him travel the world, exploring not only the food of foreign people but their culture and their hearts helped me see him as a humanitarian. Humanitarian? Fck yes! He introduce us to soooooo many different countries and their everyday people, while high lighting how food is the common thread that connects us all together. Dam I miss that dude!!!!!

[@GammaX13]

I come back to this video, years after his passing, and all I've ever loved about the man shines in every video, every episode, and every other chef that he ever shared a meal with. The great Marco Pierre White, Masa Takeyama, Eric Ripier. All of them honor him as a great influence to budding and young chefs. An icon for not only being humble, but for being genuine and authentic. And most importantly, being an enthusiastic and loving friend, who wanted nothing but peace, understanding, and equality between all cultures and all people. Someone who could always make you love and laugh around others, regardless of background or origin. Someone who thrived and existed to bring everyone together and remind them to take in the smallest things and live in the moment to fall in love with the little moments with others. I miss you, Anthony. I can never express how much of an influence you always were to me, in the kitchen and out. And to so, so many others. Words can't express how many people, young and old, you taught humility, understanding, passion, and love to. Across countless generations, peoples, cultures, beliefs, and nationalities. I hope you find solace and embrace in your afterlife, and I hope you know how loved you always were. I'm sorry if you felt alone in the end. Rest in the sweetest peace, Anthony Bourdain. Your legacy will never be able to be matched, and your personality will always be missed across the globe. Much love ❤️

[@BillPelican]

Beautiful words, Nicholas. A wonderful ode to a wonderful human being.

[@claudiakeiser1193]

Thank you for saying exactly how I feel about his impact ! 🙏🏼🍴🔪 He was the first person I truly felt that made me feel like the life I chose was pretty freakin badass and to , as you said , keep the humility alive . RIP Chef 😞

[@bobs6129]

Life is definitely missing some color without him. When I was in school, I used to watch his shows and think about when I graduate, all the places I was going to go to.

[@cam-em6rh]

I miss him. I keep catching myself watching old re-runs and occasionally forgetting reality. His spirit will live on, through food and laughter and community. Thank you for bringing so many people together during their hardships, I'll never forget you.

I came across the episode where Anthony had Mark and Jeff on the show, eating dinner, and featured some Mark’s music throughout the show. Came across a video of Anthony talking about being introduced to Mark’s music through Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and becoming a major fan. Now seeing this video in 2023, him proposing to sing one of Mark Lanegan’s songs made me smile so much. Love Anthony and Mark. R.I.P. to both legendary men

[@MistaBrown420]

Btw "shit" is knowledge from Nutrition science I took in college last semester, which is a straight fact that genetics play one of the biggest roles in weight gain. Genetics play a role in hormones this is one of the reasons genetics play such a large role in where you gain the extra adapose or whether you gain it at all.
