[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He had a great show, but I've never understood why people glorify him the way they do.[/quote] Because he was awesome when he first came out. He predated all of the chef shoes we have now. Before it was just the likes of Julia Child, Jacques Pepin, etc. But Bourdain showed you both the raw unfilitered world of the kitchen, but then all of the exciting foods in the world that weren't just thr west. Never, ever did he describe those foods either as being weird or exotic. True respect for culture and good food. [/quote] To me he was a more popular version of the Lonely Planet show. He got really luck to hit at a time when cable channels had tons of cash to throw at shows and was able to have a travel show with great production value. I don't think we'll see anything quite like it again just due to the cost [/quote]
