I just wonder what your opinions of this man are? he has a show on the travel channel, I know that isn't the greatest place to find information, but do you think he has come up with some good travelogue? do you think that he has openned the mainstream mind to something other than club med cruises at the very least?
i love bourdain. i think that i agree with a lot of his opinions about things, and even though he is filming a tv show, he manages to escape the tourist traps. he gets drunk and eats good food with locals while taking in some of the important sites. he's really funny, too. he has a cynical reluctance about a lot of things but he will still try them.
i love him too! he's so bold and never afraid to try anything. although i think he is up to something. like getting ideas from the locals and merging it with his cooking style.
I know this is my second consecutive post, but I just saw Anthony in Conan O'Brien show. He's just too cool for a chef.
I like him too much....Really nice one...
I love him.... Really nice one. Thank you for sharing with us.
I watch AB nearly every day. Not only because I just like the guy.. but it's one of the only "travel" shows where I learn about places, people, culture and more...

I find it to be a little dose of inspiration each day ,,, gives me that strength to work another day so I can save enough duckets to travel some more.
Yeah, he is a great guy, his show is also good; but i wud like a show which has more details

Yes I agree, he is a nice guy, thats why he is a popular person among many people including me.
