The ingredients of a hamburger seldom vary. It's a percentage of fat to lean meat, add salt and prepare and that's it. It shouldn't need a recipe.

I wasn't that great a chef, and I don't think I'm that great a writer.
Anthony Bourdain
I could eat bloody Elvis - if you put enough vinegar on him.
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.
Anthony Bourdain
Every chef I know, their cholesterol is through the roof. And mine's not so great.
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
Avoid at all costs that vile spew you see rotting in oil in screwtop jars. Too lazy to peel fresh? You don't deserve to eat garlic.
Anthony Bourdain
I was a serious comic collector and fanboy as a kid. I wanted very badly to draw comic books for a lot of my childhood and early adolescence. So when you have an unfulfilled dream like that, when years later you find yourself in a position to make a graphic novel - hell yeah, I'm going to do that.
Anthony Bourdain
My tastes in what I eat at home would be very familiar to most people who cook for families. I just organize those things a little bit differently.
Anthony Bourdain
You know, it's not the world I would have wanted, for sure.
Anthony Bourdain
My daughter takes pride in showing up with stuff that other kids envy or are freaked out by, so I send her to school with grilled octopus.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm very proud of the Rome episode of 'No Reservations' because it violated all the conventional wisdom about making television. You're never, ever supposed to do a food or travel show in black and white.
Anthony Bourdain
I make friends faster and easier than journalists.
Anthony Bourdain
What's the opposite of suck? Un-suck?
Anthony Bourdain
Never try to get your kid to eat anything she doesn't already want to eat. Just eat interesting stuff in front of her while completely ignoring her. Never, ever suggest try it. Never say those dreaded words try it, it's good. Or worse, It's good for you. That'll poison the well.
Anthony Bourdain
Street food, I believe, is the salvation of the human race.
Anthony Bourdain
Everything important I learned, I learned as a dishwasher.
Anthony Bourdain
I eat strategically. If I know I'm having a big Chinese banquet tomorrow, I'm not eating a big dinner tonight, and I'm not having breakfast.
Anthony Bourdain
I can't do exercises regularly because my schedule changes from day to day. I'm okay with hurting myself, like I'll lift something until it hurts, but I don't want to pass out or vomit in front of people.
Anthony Bourdain
Being a vegan is a first-world phenomenon, completely self-indulgent.
Anthony Bourdain
I'm not Ted Nugent. My house is run, essentially, by an adopted, fully clawed cat with a mean nature. I would never hunt. I would never wear fur. I would never go to a bullfight. I'm not really a meat and potatoes guy.
