No Reservations

[ocnbrze]

hey guys,
so i love this show!!!!

i know that it is not always about food, but most of the show it is. i just love anthony bourdain. i think that he is a genius in not only food, but as a writer and a show host. he has a new show on cnn called Parts Unknown.

so are there any anthony bourdain or no reservations fans like me?

I like Anthony Bourdain. I think he's great in No Reservations, but not so much in The Taste. He's a take it or leave it kind of guy and super polarizing in the chef world.
He actually came to my culinary school (he's an alum) the first day I started to introduce another chef at a lecture. Came to learn that basically all the staff/chefs there hate him with a passion. More because of the way he portrays the restaurant industry in his books. Yeah, it probably was that crazy in the 70s and 80s when he actually was a chef, but it's not like that anymore for sure. He does seem to have mellowed out lately though.

i love his books. i think that they are well written and very smart. i do understand that the business is not like it was back then, but it does give us perspective on what he had to go thru to make it where he is today. i have never eaten at any of his restaurants nor have i met him. but his shows are great and i'm a huge fan of them.

he seems cool enough on tv. but like all tv personality it is hard to gauge what he is really like in person.

I love him and his show. Every time I watch it he makes me want to go to where he goes. Does/did anyone watch The Layover? Its good but not better than No Reservations.

I watch the show sometimes and I like it. It's nice to see the different places he goes to.

I used to be an avid fan of his shows, my sister did email me a few photos of where, one of her friends
went to one of his restraunts. I still have the email for proof if you do not mind waiting
