More quotes by 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
Meals make the society, hold the fabric together in lots of ways that were charming and interesting and intoxicating to me. The perfect meal, or the best meals, occur in a context that frequently has very little to do with the food itself.
Anthony Bourdain
If anything is good for pounding humility into you permanently, it's the restaurant business.
Anthony Bourdain
Only Texans and Jews understand brisket
Anthony Bourdain
The Italians seem to have a better attitude with kids and the food is great!
Anthony Bourdain
What nicer thing can you do for somebody than make them breakfast?
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 wouldn't want to compare myself to David Byrne whom I consider a genius, but what I think what we have in common is that he's also a guy who is very interested in the world and who has a lot of passions beyond singing and playing guitar.
Anthony Bourdain
Bad food is made without pride, by cooks who have no pride, and no love. Bad food is made by chefs who are indifferent, or who are trying to be everything to everybody, who are trying to please everyone. Bad food is fake food, food that shows fear and lack of confidence in people's ability to discern or to make decisions about their lives.
Anthony Bourdain
The roots of creativity of cooking are hungry people trying to figure out how to take something that's not particularly fresh or tender and transform it into it something delicious that everyone will love.
Anthony Bourdain
If you get an opportunity to work with David Simon, anybody with good taste would.
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
Anyone who doesn't have a great time in San Francisco is pretty much dead to me.
Anthony Bourdain
I didn't want food that looked unapproachable or ridiculously beautiful.
Anthony Bourdain
Thinking of getting into the leg-breaking business, so I can profitably sell crutches later.
Anthony Bourdain
And now to sleep, to dream...perchance to fart.
Anthony Bourdain
The journey is part of the experience - an expression of the seriousness of one's intent. One doesn't take the A train to Mecca.
Anthony Bourdain
I'd never done anything useful as far as my writing.
Anthony Bourdain
What you're going to be eating in the next year is decided by chefs. If the consensus is that pot-bellies are in next season, that's what's on your plate. And I think that's a good thing, because we know, obviously, about food.
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
