I’ve always gotten a creepy feeling that Bordain trolls the back alleys of Thailand looking for “ladyboys” when the cameras are off.
having said that, he's right about Deen and Ray....both corporate suck ups who are Rats btw ......
Years ago, I asked a chef why mashed potatoes always tasted so much better in a restaurant. He told me what he said chwefs have known for decades..in a restaurant, it's "lots of cream, butter, salt and pepper held together with a little potato.."
Bourdain has turned the “Travel” channel into the non-travel channel. Years back I remember subscribing to cable just so I could get the Travel channel. Now it’s all about weird food and I never watch.
He’s right.
Paula Deen has stated many times that her recipes aren’t for everyday eating. They are recipes that are used for when you want to make something really tasty and decadent. Bourdain is one of those “chef type people” who like to criticize non-chefs (I personally think he is very impressed with himself and his title). Just a thought.
I’ve watched dozens of Bourdains’ shows. He regularly indulges in artery cloggers, eg a deepfried Twinkie. As long as we’re being critical Anthony how about cleaning up your language. The “Bleeper” works overtime on your show.
It is funny I have never heard of this Anthony Bourdain creep but I do know who Paula Deen and Rachael Ray are. I think that he can’t cook and that is his problem. He probably would not know what to do with a few slices of bacon, a couple of eggs and two slices of bread!
my wife is a total food network junkie and bourdain is a typical elitist nyc yankee, we don’t care for his type in flyover country. I don’t care that Paula Dean is a lib, I feel I would have more fun with her than bourdain does with his precious illegal aliens that he “feels” so much for.

Bourdain’s take on Guy Fietti(sp) is pretty funny. Poochy from the Simpsons. And I even like that diners show.
A funny lib picking on helpless lib sheep from the food network? At least he is being honest, which is different from the usual crap one normally gets.

Butter is better Paula is correct about that. If I am going to make something for the Holidays I always use it.
The only time I really like Bourdain’s “No Reservation’s” is when he’s somewhere in Eastern Europe or the old Soviet Block countries and the hard-drinking, Russian guy (Zamir? Shamir?) is with him. That guy makes the show, drinking a couple bottles of Vodka at ever stop and always having some crazy money making scheme. They need to dump Bourdain and give that guy the show.
“Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn. To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living. Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, and an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. The body, these waterheads imagine, is a temple that should not be polluted by animal protein. It’s healthier, they insist, though every vegetarian waiter I’ve worked with is brought down by any rumor of a cold. Oh, I’ll accommodate them, I’ll rummage around for something to feed them, for a ‘vegetarian plate’, if called on to do so. Fourteen dollars for a few slices of grilled eggplant and zucchini suits my food cost fine.” From Kitchen Confidential, p. 70.
Ever see his episode where he ate the wild things and shot serious rounds down range with Ted Nugent?
He looked like a ballerina at a cage fight.
RLTW.
BTW, what has Bourdain ever done? Chef at Brasserie Les Halles? Big deal. A half-a$$ed pseudo-French diner attached to a butcher shop.
He's nobody in the real culinary world.
He and MO are such busy bodies, giving advice when it’s not welcome. I can’t stand to watch this creep eating disgusting food to foist multiculturalism on us.
Paula Deen comes right back at Bourdain in today’s Page Six in the NY Post. Bourdain also slammed Rachel Ray, Cuomo’s live in lover and Guy Fieri. To me Bourdain is kind of creepy and very smug and superior. I’d much rather have a beer with any of the above names mentioned than Bourdain. Hey, but everyone has their own preferences.
Sounds like this commie lib is jealous.
