Today Salon.com features a decent interview with Anthony Bourdain. Some of it is fairly amusing--most accounts of eating marginally butchered warthog generally are. Still, some might find other parts of it a little tired, as many of the questions seem geared toward coaxing forth the extreme views that Bourdain is known for. Not that I didn't enjoy hearing him call Rachael Ray a "bobble-head."
I guess maybe I'd just rather watch or read about him out doing his thing, eating "squeezle" in Vietnam, than talking trash. Still, he has is eloquent moments, talking about the best and worst meals of his life, and how women had to forge a path into high-end restaurant kitchens. All in all, it's an entertaining interview. For even more Bourdain, Megnut has short piece about his 50th birthday party, written by Michael Ruhlman.
