Dude Ferrari

the unsimmerable Zimmerman.

>>8082276
who?

>>8082276

I like Bourdain buy he's kind of an edgelord, honestly.

>>8082276
Is there a more pretentious cuck in existence?

Marco Pierre White

>based
>celebrity food personality

Fucking cringe thread everyone. Grab a seat and let loose your autism.

Not pretentious
Eats real-people food
Diners Drive-Ins and Dives but without the memes

What is there not to like?

>>8082365
>eats real people food

Have you ever cringed so hard your eyelids hurt?

>yurocucks assblasted by based bourdain

>manlet ramsayfags completely on giga suicide watch

>>8082373
>implying anyone outside of america is real people

>>8082276
bourdain is a fucking wannabe writer cuck

have you seen the episode of no memervations where he basically blames the US for the situation in israel? The only thing he didn't do was suck a jew cock while taking another in the ass.

Dude's like 60 and he still acts like a teenage edgelord.

>>8082413
>wannabe writer
Pretty sure he's doing it, friend

These youngsters think they're hot shit. They ain't got shit on their elders.

>>8082276
Actually I loved this guys first book.

pretty late to have a lot of triggered yuros

are the people ITT that are mad thirdies, or just SJW cucks who hate America?

>>8082423
Pepin is the best

>>8082423
do you think Julia was a tranny?

>>8082429
it's one british guy who has been banned multiple times.

>>8082419

>he's doing it

you mean just like he's a chef?

>>8082429
which posts are you talking about? all I see is TV gossip debates, and some guy posting stupid reaction images

>>8082413
>where he basically blames the US for the situation in israel?
While I don't know what this guy means, it's true that US could have fixed this shit for the most part. The US should have stepped in when the Arabs asked for it with the Khartoum Resolution. Someone needed to play bad cop for the Arabs and the Israelis since they weren't going to police themselves. How do you mess this up when you're on the good side of most of these countries at the time? Instead, the US backed Israel so that politicians could get the Jewish voting bloc. Anyway, this has nothing to do with /ck/ but he's not entirely wrong there.

>>8082315

I respect that guys immune system. He eats some sketchy ass shit.

its like i'm on /v/

celebrity chefs aren't chefs. they are celebrities. How often are they in their restaurant cooking?

he's a faggot. a pussy. he wants to embrace jamals hard nigger dick.

>>8082521
and /ck/ isn't a board for cooking, but rather for region wars and fast food memes.

what's your point, faggot?

>>8082525
what's YOUR point?

>>8082365
This guy is annoying as fuck. He's a fuckin cornball

>>8082315
>>8082508
you know whats up
>>8082521
wrong, zimmern is based

>>8082612

Confirming Zimmern is cool as heck. Seems like such a nice guy.

>>8082276
Chef John

Ja/ck/ obviously

>>8082626
The big thing is that if he isn't actually a nice guy, he doesn't go around making it obvious.

>>8082276
b-but I like all 3 of them

>>8082638

Plus I have mad respect for him. He was a homeless drug addict for a year.

>>8082641
Wasn't red shirt a convicted child molester?

>>8082659
No idea, I just remember the thread he posted this photo with his face blurred and some anon found the original in 5 mins

>>8082665
*the photo

pancake face unrelated

The Layover was his finest travel tv work. Decent balance of culture, food and travel. The Mind of a Chef is also great.

No Reservations was heavy on the cultural commentary, and Parts Unknown deals too much with social issues. Both are good shows, though.

Joey all day erry day

IM ANFUNNY BORDAIN AND I DID COCAINEE MANNNNNN MANNNN WHOWWWW I TRAVEL A LOT OMGGGG I LOVE TO INDDULLGGE OOOHH YEAH

Every person I've ever known who was into this faggot was a piece of shit. Usually an older roastie who, in lieu of a husband, still has wild crushes on various effeminate male celebrities and likes to dress her limp-wristed amateur musician open-relation boyfriend up in nail polish and make up.

>>8082469
He wasn't a chef from the 70's to 2002?

smoke weed every day

>>8082746

I don't mind him. I used to watch his show when I was around 20. He is kind of the edgelord of travel show hosts.

But I appreciate his view on things, even if he's a little too tryhard badboi for my taste.

daniel boulud is based^2

>>8082469
He's been a much better writer than he ever was as a middling chef.

>>8082794

literally no one heard of this jewcuck edgelord until his netflix shows hit the mainstream. If you asked anyone who anthony bourdain was 3 years ago, you'd be met with blank stares.

>>8082413
Dude, he IS a writer. Keep up, or rather, maybe read a book every now and then and understand that was his first gig. He's the child of 60s college types, too, fyi, hence the great upbringing with a grasp of vocabulary and a flair for writing. His mother worked for the New York Times, durr He initially upset his parents when he went to the CIA and not a different degree program after quitting Vassar, but his quality education led to immediate exec level positions in hospitality.
>he basically blames the US for the situation in israel? The only thing he didn't do was suck a jew cock while taking another in the ass.
You don't at all realize those are conflicting ideas. There are a good handful of episodes where he moves away from his normally apolitical sensitivity and gets quite rude, and the Isreal episode played both sides in a politically correct way, that came across quite palestinean sympathetic, and not the reverse. In contrast, he was quite shaken in his famous evacuation from Beirut episode when the terror groups rocked his safety. It's a sort of game where he tries to empathize with locals to the point of forgetting his own common sense of balance.

>>8083010
Dumbest shit I've read today

>>8082794
>He wasn't a chef from the 70's to 2002?
The original comment was that he is in fact a writer, not a wannabe writer, but that he was doing the writing gig right now.

>>8083010
Confirmed underageb&

>>8083047
Agreed. He's been writing and making shows for years.

>>8083010

> If you asked anyone who anthony boudain was 3 years ago, you'd be met with blank stares

> 3 years ago

> No Reservations first aired in 2005

You're fucking retarded.

HEY EVERYBODY I'M GUY FIERI AND WE'RE ROLLING OUT, LOOKING FOR AMERICA'S GREATEST DINERS, DRIVE-INS, AND DIVES!

>>8083010
>If you asked anyone who anthony bourdain was 3 years ago, you'd be met with blank stares.
Actually Kitchen Confidential was in 2000, and kind of rocked the NYT bestseller list, and made the national rounds from Today Show to book signings, to every chef/every waiter talking about it. Whether you read it or not was a matter of your ability to read, but everyone at least knew about it, and if they didn't read it just assumed it was about the 3 second rule, waiters that spit in food and over "amazing revelations" about the restaurant industry. It was more a biography, than the talk shows let on.

He followed right up with the Cooks Tour book, prior to filming it.

>>8082938
truuuuuuu
Action Bronson is at the top of the rap and food personality games.

>>8082413
Was Bourdain always a liberal or has he only been like this since he started working for CNN? Maybe I was just blind to it all those years.

>>8083010
I've been following Bourdain for the better part of a decade and I'm not even an Americuck, what the hell are you babbling about.

>>8082413
>where he basically blames the US for the situation in israel
Hundreds of billions in aid
State of the art weapons systems exports
Direct intelligence collaboration including raw, indiscriminate data captures from domestic dragnet internet surveillance
Repeated use of UNSC veto power in favor of Israel

No matter what your position on the Israel/Palestine conflict, I don't see how you could possibly argue that the US is not largely responsible for whatever is going on over there at this point

>>8083117

He's a libertarian.

>>8083874

>>8082276
>always going on and on about how he hates hipsters
>is pretty much the biggest hipster in existence

Also his shows keep getting shittier and shittier.

>>8082276
He's a bit of a pretentious hipster twat but I guess it is refreshing to have someone like that out there

I wouldn't want to be friends with him at all

>>8082525
what the hell are you on and where can I get some?

I too want to be retarded

>>8082626
I met him randomly while he was shooting in Munich. He IS a super nice guy. Or maybe he was just glad there were other Americans in town

>>8082683
I didn't really like the Layover but otherwise this

>watching the first episode of Bizarre Foods right now

How did I survive all my life without this

>>8083010
literally crying from laughter at how wrong this is

I'm a Dutchfag, food channels here have broadcast No Reservations since 2009 at least.

>>8084713
I've been watching tony for 10 years, you live under a rock if you think he's only been popular in the last 3

That is why you suck

>>8082329
No shit. An upper middle class kid like him going into cooking was edgy as fuck back when he did it. He didn't get into cooking in the first place because he had no other options. He did it because he thought it was badass. Being part French and spending time there growing up gives him some reverence for technique and tradition, but in his heart he loves badass, street level cooking as much as he loves rock and roll.

Anthony Bourdain is basically the real life version of Holden Caulfield.

>>8082421
This guy turned me on to aldi. I was in college, and it changed my life forever.

>>8084786
Deep, Man.
Congratulations on being well read.

>>8084818
>congrats on passing 10th grade

why are we forced to read that book?

>>8084854

To make you hate reading.

>>8084854
Teachers seem to think it connects with teenagers.
Maybe it did 60 years ago.

>>8084782
>He didn't get into cooking in the first place because he had no other options.
Yes he did. He was a fucking druggie failure from a preppy highschool in Manhattan for dumb rich kids.

I like him but he's not some badass from the streets.

>>8082276
no celebrity is based by virtue of being a celebrity

>>8084879
Zimmern is probably the only fat jew with more street cred than Bourdain now that I think about it

>>8084914
they were both homeless heroin junkies, i'd say it's even

>>8082276
andrew richman is the funnest. zimmern is the smartest. and bourdain is probably most cultural. IMO

richman is my favorite though, he just seems like a nice guy

Hes the best mix of narration. Not taking himself too seriously, sarcastic but honest, and the people he finds are alot more interesting than the food he eats.
I would like Mind of a Chef more if it was edited more like Parts Unknown instead of a public access Good Eats...still great though.

The Layover sucks by the way. Only good part is the general feeling that Bourdain is doing it for the paycheck and isn't interested at all. I could really give a fuck about the best bus route to Shanghai city from Taiwan International, you can google that shit now.

Anyway, the Congo river ep from last season was some of his best stuff and i dont even remember if he ate anything.

>>8084925
This.

>>8084948
bourdain has the best voice

so if i bring a dinosaur ridding ho in here, you won't tell anybody? our something like that, he is pretty cool. but haven't really seen any others.

>>8085066
I wonder if he ever sold any of that chocolate he was "shilling" is that the word?

The one and only

>>8084786

You know what I just fucking realized? My new neighbours have a kid named Holden and their last name is Wakefield.

That poor fucker.

>>8082276
the only thing i ever saw him in was parts unknown season 1 and i really liked it

>>8084985
it's hard to hear his voice through the bundle of jew cocks stuffed in his mouth.

>>8082276
what if I like both him and ramsay?

>>8082276

I don't respect him because he was a cokehead and a fucking cook.

I'm also confident someone writes his witty commentary to his narration.

>>8082276
I don't mind his show, but the issue I have with it is when you actually know the city or places he is going to 90% of it is over exaggerated to the point of it almost being a lie

>>8085113
Holy shit i hate this guy.

He has a successful sauce business, a huge youtube channel and tons of sponsorship money.

But he fucking sucks at cooking.

How the fuck do you make and market food stuff when you suck so fucking bad at cooking.

>>8084870

I never said he was some badass from the streets. And yeah, he was a druggie fuck up for a while. My point was that he was a soft upper middle class kid who wanted to be a badass, saw cooking as a way to become that and moved to NYC because he was attracted to street level shit (including heroin).

If "Bigfoot" hadn't given him the chance to get his shit together we might never have gotten Kitchen Confidential or any of the television personality we enjoy so much.

There is something amazing about the smart fuckup who gets his shit together and then, at the point where most guys are just phoning it in becomes a celebrity. Tony does a pretty good job in that role. Good for him.

Of course he likes guns, he's a hardcore biker "crash"

I wouldn't put it that way, but if it were a choice of having to watch GF on TV (or worse eat at one of his restaurants) and doing some drugs I'd take the drugs hands down.

>>8088202
Isn't this guy like,super ripped now? That's usually the way a fat celebrity goes

I like his show's ability to mix food with culture and recent history. Very entertaining.

>>8088253
Not saying that he isn't, but Bourdain is also a douche.

>>8084795
do you have aldi in america?

Thing is, I watch people make food, I babble about gangsters, ,

>>8088027
yup

>>8088528
Yes, but apparently it's slightly different then the yurop Aldis.

>>8088540
in Britain we get a pretty good variety of cheap, quality food, beer, wine and foreign stuff.

>>8088534

He actually responds on his facebook page, too. He's a really nice guy.

>>8088553
It's the same thing in America. Used to be more discount oriented, not they are starting to focus on quality. My mom really raves about how the one near her is changing for the better.

I rarely go there anymore though because I'm not paying to bag my own groceries

>>8082276
He's a fucking tryhard faggot and so is everyone that likes him.

So badass.

>>8088968
Fuck man, that shit drove how much of the NY scene from Charlie Parker to Monk to Billie Holiday to Andy Warhol to Lou Reed to Johnny Thunders. Lots of NYC cool was tied up in being a junkie. It's the mob's fault.

>>8082365
so he's a 'foodie'

>>8082276
Wtf happened to Tony?
