Anthony Bourdain and pork

You know, we already loved Anthony Bourdain in this house.

Former executive chef at Brasserie Les Halles in New York (and thus master of French bistro food, which is a favorite around here), author of the Les Halles Cookbook and the wildly incendiary restaurant memoir Kitchen Confidential, Bourdain made quite a name for himself as chef and writer.

Now, of course, he’s even better known as the host of No Reservations, an always entertaining tour of the beautiful places of the world, as well as their underbellies, through food.

Last week, one of our friends was watching Bourdain’s episode on the Azores and quoted him on Twitter:

“Pork is the answer to all problems” anthony bourdain

We knew we liked this man.
