More quotes by Anthony Bourdain

Anthony Bourdain
I can unload my opinion on anybody at anytime.
Anthony Bourdain
We learn as professionals by repetition, by getting it wrong, getting yelled at and doing it again.
Anthony Bourdain
Even on the Serengeti, it ain't a barbecue if there ain't some kind of beer.
Anthony Bourdain
Luck is not a business model.
Anthony Bourdain
To me, life without veal stock, pork fat, sausage, organ meat, demi-glace, or even stinky cheese is a life not worth living.
Anthony Bourdain
Context and memory play powerful roles in all the truly great meals in one's life.
Anthony Bourdain
Turning your nose up at a genuine and sincere gesture of hospitality is no way to travel or to make friends around the world.

I'm really happy to see the explosion of interest in Korean food, and this hybrid Korean-American food.
Anthony Bourdain
You have an impeccable argument if you said that Singapore, Hong Kong, and Tokyo are food capitals. They have a maximum amount of great stuff to eat in the smallest areas.
