More quotes by Anthony Bourdain
Writing anything is a treason of sorts.
Anthony Bourdain
I wanted it to look like real cooking in someone's real home or just so out-of-there bizarre that it would be fun.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm at my most productive before I even have my first cup of coffee. I only get slower and stupider as the day progresses.
Anthony Bourdain
I am a delightfully evangelical guy about things I love. I am that annoying guy who sits everyone down and forces them to read some book I like. I'm looking across the full spectrum of genres.
Anthony Bourdain
The Italians and Spanish, the Chinese and Vietnamese see food as part of a larger, more essential and pleasurable part of daily life. Not as an experience to be collected or bragged about - or as a ritual like filling up a car - but as something else that gives pleasure, like sex or music, or a good nap in the afternoon.
Anthony Bourdain
Where once they used to say, 'Cocaine is God's way of saying you have too much money' - now, maybe EDM is. Come ye lords and princelings of douchedom.
Anthony Bourdain
The fact of the matter is that, for years, the restaurant and service industry has been, to a great extent, built on the backs of often underpaid immigrants of often dubious legal status.
Anthony Bourdain
Street food, I believe, is the salvation of the human race.
Anthony Bourdain
Being on television, being recognizable, this is unnatural.
Anthony Bourdain
Very few restaurant workers could even dream of eating in the restaurants they work in. Many do not make a living wage.
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
I could eat bloody Elvis - if you put enough vinegar on him.
Anthony Bourdain
It's wrong I think, morally and annoying in general, to try to get a kid to be a foodie, so I never even suggested, Hey baby it's good, maybe you should try it. That never worked for me.
Anthony Bourdain
I believe - to the best of my recollection, anyway - that I soon made the classic error of moving from margaritas to actual shots of straight tequila. It does make it easier to meet new people.
Anthony Bourdain
When your signature dish is hamburger in between a doughnut, and you've been cheerfully selling this stuff knowing all along that you've got Type 2 Diabetes... It's in bad taste if nothing else.
Anthony Bourdain
I don't snack. I don't generally eat sweets or drink soda. I never eat between meals or even before big ones.
Anthony Bourdain
Food is so personal - I mean someone is talking to you when people are cooking for you. I like to hear an identifiable voice.
Anthony Bourdain
Don't dunk your nigiri in the soy sauce. Don't mix your wasabi in the soy sauce. If the rice is good, complement your sushi chef on the rice.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm not besotted with the notion of being on CNN to the point that I'm going to suddenly morph into Anderson Cooper or Christiane Amanpour. I'm not a foreign correspondent.
Anthony Bourdain
It's not normal, what I do. Just being on television isn't.
Anthony Bourdain
