More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I'd love to play bass with Parliament Funkadelic, but I can't play bass, so I don't think that's going to happen.
Anthony Bourdain
You know, it's not the world I would have wanted, for sure.
Anthony Bourdain
It's that show Friends. Ruined coffee forever.
Anthony Bourdain
Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm a decent cook I'm a decent chef. None of my friends would ever have hired me at any point in my career. Period.
Anthony Bourdain
The cooking profession, while it's a noble craft and a noble calling, 'cause you're doing something useful - you're feeding people, you're nurturing them, you're providing sustenance - it was never pure.
Anthony Bourdain
Few things are more beautiful to me than a bunch of thuggish, heavily tattooed line cooks moving around each other like ballerinas on a busy Saturday night. Seeing two guys who'd just as soon cut each other's throats in their off hours moving in unison with grace and ease can be as uplifting as any chemical stimulant or organized religion.
Anthony Bourdain
People everywhere have been very, very good to me, whether I'm with or without cameras.
Anthony Bourdain
The notion that before you even set out to go to Thailand, you say, 'I'm not interested,' or you're unwilling to try things that people take so personally and are so proud of and so generous with, I don't understand that, and I think it's rude. You're at Grandma's house, you eat what Grandma serves you.
Anthony Bourdain
If you have a good experience in a restaurant, you tell 2 people. If you have a bad experience, you tell 10 people.
Anthony Bourdain
Hong Kong is a wonderful, mixed-up town where you've got great food and adventure. First and foremost, it's a great place to experience China in a relatively accessible way.
Anthony Bourdain
People's choice to become vegan, from people I've spoken to, seems motivated by fear.
Anthony Bourdain
I have the best job in the world.
Anthony Bourdain
Only desperation can account for what the Chinese do in the name of 'medicine.' That's something you might remind your New Age friends who've gone gaga over 'holistic medicine' and 'alternative Chinese cures.
Anthony Bourdain
Being a vegan is a first-world phenomenon, completely self-indulgent.
Anthony Bourdain
There's something wonderful about drinking in the afternoon. A not-too-cold pint, absolutely alone at the bar - even in this fake-ass Irish pub.
Anthony Bourdain
Those places I don't understand, just doing bad food. It takes some doing. Making good pasta is so much easier than making bad stuff. It actually takes quite an effort to make poor linguine pomodora.
Anthony Bourdain
Big stuff and little: learning how to order breakfast in a country where I don't speak the language and haven't been before - that's really satisfying to me. I like that.
Anthony Bourdain
Naturally, I'm misanthropic. But the Negronis are helping considerably.
Anthony Bourdain
Look, getting bullied in school and coming home crying in the rain and my mom making me a can of Campbell's Tomato Soup with some oysterettes. It was comfort food that is what food should be.
