Anthony Bourdain

I sometimes think he probably has a personal relationship with Satan. I think he's the only person in the world that I'd trust to cook or recommend good innards, which I'm not really fond of but which he is. I also think he's hysterically funny and infinitely interesting to watch, even at his whiniest, most sarcastic New Yorker best (or worst, depending, I suppose, on your perspective). I own both "Kitchen Confidential" and "A Cook's Tour", and if I ever hit the lottery, I'd buy the entire "No Reservations" series on DVD. I especially loved the Korean episode, and nobody has more fun in Japan.

Anyhow, just had to get that off my chest. That's what blogs are for.
