I love this guy....
Oh, man.....all of this is so true & so damn funny. Remind me to buy Anthony Bourdain a beer if I ever get the chance.
My favorite part, regarding Rachel Ray...
"She's a friendly, familiar face who appears regularly on our screens to tell us that "Even your dumb, lazy ass can cook this!" Wallowing in your own crapulence on your Cheeto-littered couch you watch her and think, "Hell…I could do that. I ain't gonna…but I could--if I wanted! Now where's my damn jug a Diet Pepsi?" Where the saintly Julia Child sought to raise expectations, to enlighten us, make us better--teach us--and in fact, did, Rachael uses her strange and terrible powers to narcotize her public with her hypnotic mantra of Yummo and Evoo and Sammys. "You're doing just fine. You don't even have to chop an onion--you can buy it already chopped. Aspire to nothing…Just sit there. Have another Triscuit…Sleep….sleep…."
The rest here.

Hey, Thanks!!
I have read Kitchen Confidential & A Cook's Tour & loved them both. His shows aren't that bad either. I wish I had his job...or hell I wish I could work on his crew.
Cheers,
Collin
