Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
The more I read by Anthony Bourdain and the more I see him on television, the more I like him. He's not always an instantly appealing character (he can be downright prickly at times) but I love that he does not fear saying what is exactly on his mind, and in the vast expanse of watered down pap that is the Food Network these days, the fact that they are replaying A Cook's Tour gives me hope. TV Guide currently has an interview up with Bourdain that is a fun read. He comes off as honest and forthright, but without as much of the biting snark that he is known for. I found it especially endearing that he quit smoking because he didn't want to smoke around his baby daughter (I realize that that is what all good parents should do, but with his tough exterior, it's nice to see that he wants to change for his child).

It's even harder to like him via that show...but I've managed. He's very interesting and goes for the whole culture - usually. So far my favorite was when he was in the Caribbean islands. My least favorite was when he was in Brazil. He just started the new season. I'll be watching. Wish I knew more about when he had a restaurant.

Hated it when he was in Brazil. Loved the one where he was on a Caribbean island - can't remember which - so won't guess.
