Bourdain in Beirut

Posted on 22/08/2006 | 2 Comments

Last night, I watched my other favorite TV chef's special Bourdain in Beirut on the Travel Channel.  Tony Bourdain was filming an episode of his show No Reservations when the bombings started in Lebanon and they filmed their time there.  It's really fascinating and sad what's happened to the city, he also wrote about it for Salon.com: Watching Beirut die.  You'll have to watch a brief ad to read it for free, but I think it's worth it.  The show is rerunning this week a few times on the Travel Channel.

    I think Anthony Bourdain is quite possibly one of my most favorite people in the world that I have yet to meet in real life. The man is a genius, his books are awesome, and his TV show rocks!!!
    Unfortunately, I missed last night's episode! How could I have forgotten?! Will have to make sure to to keep an eye out for it this week…

    p.s. Hope you don't mind, but I added you to my neighborhood. Any fan of Bourdain is cool in my book! 🙂
