More quotes by 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
I'd never done anything useful as far as my writing.
Anthony Bourdain
There are very sophisticated, very time-consuming dishes to prepare always from scratch, and always in excess of what you could possibly need. You tend to kill your guests with kindness around here.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm not looking to freak people out - eating rodents or bugs. I don't do that anymore.
Anthony Bourdain
If I'm training I'm cutting weight for a competition. I'm hard. I'm pretty much eating animal protein and that's it. No rice, no beans, certainly no sweets.
Anthony Bourdain
When my father passed, I was still an unsuccessful cook with a drug problem. I was in my mid-thirties, standing behind an oyster bar, cracking clams for a living when he died. So, he never saw me complete a book or achieve anything of note. I would have liked to have shared this with him.
Anthony Bourdain
I've seen zero evidence of any nation on Earth other than Mexico even remotely having the slightest clue what Mexican food is about or even come close to reproducing it. It is perhaps the most misunderstood country and cuisine on Earth.
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
You can call me the bad boy chef all you want. I'm not going to freak out about it. I'm not that bad. I'm certainly not a boy, and it's been a while since I've been a chef.
Anthony Bourdain
Really annoys me any time I see Asian fusion too. Asia is a big place which Asian are you talking about? You notice it's never Uzbek or Tajik food. It's Thai, and it's generally insulting.
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
I'm excited by any food that's prepared by someone who's proud of what they're doing, who puts a personal imprint on food.
Anthony Bourdain
What is left of the poor? Try to buy a fresh f**king vegetable in West Baltimore. It is a not completely inconceivable scenario in the future, we'll all look like that... Waddling from convenience store to fast food outlet, chewing mindlessly on 99 cent hamburgers.
Anthony Bourdain
It's that show Friends. Ruined coffee forever.
Anthony Bourdain
I always entertain the notion that I'm wrong, or that I'll have to revise my opinion. Most of the time that feels good sometimes it really hurts and is embarrassing.
Anthony Bourdain
I can unload my opinion on anybody at anytime.
Anthony Bourdain
Don't lie about it. You made a mistake. Admit it and move on. Just don't do it again. Ever
Anthony Bourdain
I managed to reach a depth of self-loathing that usually takes a night of drinking to achieve.
Anthony Bourdain
If people are working only rice and beans for much of their diet, it says something.
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.
