Why I Like Anthony Bourdain….
Like many others, I enjoy watching Anthony tour the world visiting exotic locals and trying unique foods. It’s not just the fact that he will try nearly anything that is offered to him or that he is willing to be drunk under the table by many an old wizened fellow from the nearby hills - it’s the courtesy and respect that he infallibly demonstrates that really is endearing.
Now, I’m sure the term ‘endearing’ is not something he would appreciate. But it is nonetheless the case that tho’ he has a sharp wit and could easily slice and dice any ego within earshot - he shows only the utmost respect for his hosts. And he does so even if the situation is awkward and potentially very embarrassing for him. And that is CLASSY.
