...Fieri's meteoric ascent is impressive, but it also makes him one of the culinary world's most polarizing figures. For as many fans as Fieri earns—Dora Long, the creator of Fieri's biggest fan site, says she gets “hundreds of emails a week”—he draws equal detractors. Like Rachael Ray or Emeril Lagasse, Fieri is a food personality who has rapidly outgrown the food, walking the narrow line between technique and celebrity that makes so many in the industry nervous. His recipes have names like “No Can Beato This Taquito,” and “Mac-Daddi-Roni Salad,” and he often effuses about the greasy meals he eats on Diners, Drive-Ins and Drives with his mouth full of nachos or chili dogs—spirited gluttony as entertainment.
The ire from the industry is palpable: At a recent panel at the New York Wine& Food Festival, star chefs David Chang and Anthony Bourdain sat down to “call bull----” on several aspects of the food world, and singled out Fieri as the enemy...

LOL! Get real. The guy sells out 20 and 30,000 seat venues doing cooking demonstrations! It's working.
I love to cook. I must have 100 cookbooks. None of them have a recipe for brain sugery, but lately they are treated as if they can do it. "I don't see your personality in this dish" Gimme a break. How does it taste. Cook and shut up.
So relax. either he is your cup of tea or he isn’t. Hardly worth getting excited over
There is one thing which comes through very clearly wiht the places Guy visits: all the places are run by small business people who have pride in their work, their business, their value to the community. There are no SEIU slugs holding job spots for a paycheck and with no pride in workmanship, just real small business owners and workers doing their best to get it done for their customers, with pride. ... So anti-obamaesque don’tchaknow.
Exactly. That stuff. What the heck is that anyway...I mean geez.
You can’t possibly feel full after eating that $30 plate of nothingness.
Ya lost me on that one.
Assuming typo, yes she does.
Bourdain-——idiot drunk who has a useless show on the travel channel. no wonder he’s jealous
The Food Network or not we'll always be allies!
Think I’ll have to blow that one up to poster size!
His show is basic cooking with the “whys” behind it.
I guess each person has different tastes. I like Guy and pretty much everyone else on the channel, even Alton, though I hate his stupid gimmicks and skits.
My wife thinks Alton is pretentious and hates him, as well as Emeril for some reason. Yet, she loves Rachael Ray (hard to say she’s even on the channel anymore though), Giada, Sandra Lee, Paula, Guy etc.
Really. Never heard that. Can’t understand why.
Not enough Crispy Bacon Strips and is that Skippy Extra Chunky beneath the Bacon?
I don’t spend sleepless nights over it. Cooking is my hobby. He isn’t someone I’d look to.
For those who don't know, SHE is a HE...:)

As an example, check out the pronunciation of cantare at 1:27... The difference between the 'T' and the 'R' is quite subtle.
