The World of Anthony Bourdain

The world was shocked by the passing of Anthony Bourdain last week. Anthony Michael Bourdain was a celebrity chef, author, travel documentarian, and television personality who starred in programs focusing on the exploration of international culture, cuisine, and the human condition.

I read his book, Kitchen Confidential several years ago and it brought back many fun memories of working in the food service industry.

I just started watching his series, Parts Unknown, opens a new window on Netflix. He is an incredible storyteller. He connects with all different people and cultures through food. He says, "if you sit down with people and enjoy a meal you can connect on a different level," I agree.

Visit the world of Anthony Bourdain through his books and DVD series. Here are a few.
