Thanks to his shows \u003cem>No Reservations\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Parts Unknown\u003c/em>, his blog and his books, he visited and supported many communities of marginalized people — making him a beloved figure both within the food industry and the wider public imagination.

The project was founded by Bay Area friends Justine Lee and Tria Chang as a reaction to how shocked they were by the results of the 2016 election. Anyone around the country can host a dinner using a downloadable template that includes ground rules, icebreakers, guided activities, and closing reflections. Over two dozen dinners have taken place since the group launched in early 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Have these dinners been successful in fostering warm feelings between ideological adversaries? Tom Speaker, coordinator of the New York chapter, isn’t sure. “It’s not like we can measure what direct effect we have on polarization in terms of numbers,” explains Speaker. “All you can really measure are the stories.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scholar and author Sam Chapple-Sokol, inspired by stories of how food has been used to bridge divides, coined the term “\u003ca href=\"http://booksandjournals.brillonline.com/content/journals/10.1163/1871191x-12341244\">culinary diplomacy\u003c/a>” in 2012 to describe this phenomenon. His research focuses on the use of food to foster discussion and aid in negotiations. “The easiest way to win hearts and minds is through the stomach,” says Chapple-Sokol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Bourdain, who passed away earlier this month at the age of 61, was famous for his belief that food can be a way to learn about other people and other cultures. “Meals make the society, hold the fabric together in lots of ways that were charming and interesting and intoxicating to me,” Bourdain said in \u003ca href=\"https://bookpage.com/interviews/8122-anthony-bourdain\">an interview in 2001\u003c/a>. “The perfect meal, or the best meals, occur in a context that frequently has very little to do with the food itself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the term used to describe these activities is new, using food to bring people together is not a novel idea. Today’s trends build on a history of culinary diplomacy. From Biblical times comes the phrase “breaking bread,” which can mean both sharing a meal and finding understanding between two parties. In more modern times, an article in the October 1959 issue of the \u003cem>Journal of Home Economics \u003c/em>features a junior high class preparing international meals and eating together to “promote better understanding of other countries.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More recently, the \u003ca href=\"https://2009-2017.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2012/09/197375.htm\">Diplomatic Culinary Partnership program\u003c/a> was launched by the U.S. State Department in 2012 under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The high-profile initiative involved sending \u003ca href=\"http://www.laweekly.com/restaurants/the-state-department-unveils-the-diplomatic-culinary-partnership-2381915\">U.S. celebrity chefs\u003c/a> around the world to cook at foreign embassies, host local dinners for the public, and collaborate with celebrated chefs in host countries. Lauren Bernstein, former director of the program from 2012 to 2017, saw it as a tool to soften both high-level diplomatic relationships and the perception of the American public as a whole. “We were able to reach so many people, because everyone loves food,” says Bernstein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Culinary diplomacy is not without its critics. Sending wealthy chefs into other countries doesn’t necessarily accomplish much, according to Alina Dolea, a scholar of international communication at the University of California at Berkeley. In practice, this form of culinary diplomacy functions more like a glossy public relations campaign than a real attempt at dialogue, she writes in \u003cem>The Routledge Handbook of Critical Public Relations. \u003c/em>She argues that the people who have access to the resources and events involved in this type of activity are often not the ones who are most in need of understanding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not everyone is as cynical as Dolea. One of the recent examples of culinary diplomacy is \u003ca href=\"https://www.conflictkitchen.org/\">Conflict Kitchen\u003c/a>, a restaurant in Pittsburgh founded by Carnegie Mellon University professor Jon Rubin and artist Dawn Weleski in 2010. By serving foods from countries with which the United States is in conflict, Conflict Kitchen aims to humanize these nations and reframe the discussion about how war affects civilian life. Rubin and Weleski rewrote the menu seven times to cover cuisines from Iran, Afghanistan, Cuba, North Korea, Palestine, Venezuela, and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, an indigenous tribe from upstate New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The restaurant augments its activities by hosting events like “Join a Local Palestinian for Lunch,” aspiring to create connections between local residents and people from other cultures. Their methods contrast with the State Department initiative by keeping the food affordable and making the experience open to all, not just those with access and resources. For their work, Rubin and Weleski were nominated for an International Award for Public Art by The Institute for Public Art in Hong Kong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cookbook author Julia Turshen has also been a vocal advocate for using food as a tool for social justice and sparking discussion. Her bestselling 2017 \u003ca href=\"https://civileats.com/2017/10/03/julia-turshen-wants-to-feed-the-resistance/\">cookbook\u003c/a> \u003cem>Feed the Resistance\u003c/em> provides recipes for physical and mental nourishment for activists, from chef Preeti Mistry’s tikka masala macaroni and cheese to an essay titled “How Food Can Impact Communities” by La Cocina’s Caleb Zigas. In April, Turshen launched \u003ca href=\"https://equityatthetable.com/\">Equity at the Table\u003c/a> (EATT), a searchable online database of diverse voices in the food industry. “I plan to continue to use my work as a way to center marginalized voices and to shift the industry in a more equitable direction (not to be confused with a more equal one),” says Turshen. “I’m not interested in merely adding seats to the table – I’m invested in shifting who gets to do the inviting and the table setting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some dinner parties are being used to challenge rather than comfort. \u003ca href=\"http://www.fromlagos.com/dinnerseries/\">Blackness in America\u003c/a> is a series hosted by Nigerian chef and author Tunde Wey that explores themes like police brutality, sexism, and violence through the lens of race. From 2016 to 2017, Wey organized 20 intimate dinners attended by a mix of Black and non-Black people. To orient the discussion to his personal experience of being Black in America, Wey cooked and served a rotating menu of homestyle Nigerian food, including his favorite jollof rice flavored with scorching scotch bonnet peppers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike MADA and Conflict Kitchen, Wey’s goal with Blackness in America isn’t tied to generating warm and comfortable feelings. He wants diners to be speak honestly about tough topics, even if it’s difficult and stirs up painful emotions. “I think that discomfort can be instructive,” explains Wey. “I’m not actively seeking discomfort for my guests, but when you’re talking about uncomfortable things, and you’re talking about them honestly and in an intimate way, you’re bound to be uncomfortable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003ca href=\"https://civileats.com/2018/03/01/at-this-pop-up-lunch-counter-race-is-included-in-the-bill/\">current project\u003c/a>, named after Saartjie Baartman, a Black South African woman who was taken to Europe in the 1800s and paraded as a sexualized spectacle and oddity, Wey is tackling privilege and race. The venture began earlier this year as a month-long pop-up restaurant in New Orleans where patrons could choose to pay different amounts based on their race. In May, Wey hosted a series of \u003ca href=\"https://www.metrotimes.com/table-and-bar/archives/2018/03/26/tunde-ways-hamtramck-pop-up-will-explore-race-privilege-and-charity\">four dinners in Detroit\u003c/a> where diners experienced their meal differently based on a survey they filled out about their existing privilege.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of these are modest, low-profile events. MADA is optimistic that their latest host will raise the group’s profile: Glenn Beck. Beck took an interest in MADA after reading \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/eveturowpaul/2017/12/12/the-political-and-communal-power-of-dinnertime/#3c195e58ada4\">an article\u003c/a> about it in \u003cem>Forbes\u003c/em>and seeing how it relates to his desire to continue political discourse and promote free speech. He hosted \u003ca href=\"https://www.glennbeck.com/2018/04/27/watch-the-full-episode-make-america-dinner-again/\">and filmed\u003c/a> his own MADA event this past April and plans to host many more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our first dinner modeled after MADA felt the way many Americans feel,” Beck told Civil Eats. “People feel that they aren’t being heard. Many power brokers have recognized this, but rarely do they ask, ‘who is actually and honestly listening without agenda?’ I hope we continue this trend to model how easy this really can be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the Brooklyn dining room, Anne Phelan voiced her opinion that welfare recipients should not be drug tested, and to her surprise, conservative Nick Phillips agreed. While neither came away feeling like their minds had been changed about any of the issues they discussed, they both agreed that the group dinner setting changed the dynamic. “It was the least confrontational possible way to talk about this stuff,” says Phelan, “and the tacos were pretty good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was originally published on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/civileat\">Civil Eats\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"From culinary diplomacy to feeding the resistance, people are turning to shared meals as a way to communicate across political and cultural divides.\r\n\r\n","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1530366049,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":23,"wordCount":1718},"headData":{"title":"Can Dinner Parties Make America Great Again? | KQED","description":"From culinary diplomacy to feeding the resistance, people are turning to shared meals as a way to communicate across political and cultural divides.\r\n\r\n","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"Can Dinner Parties Make America Great Again?","datePublished":"2018-06-29T05:06:51.000Z","dateModified":"2018-06-30T13:40:49.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"disqusIdentifier":"129181 https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/?p=129181","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2018/06/28/can-dinner-parties-make-america-great-again/","disqusTitle":"Can Dinner Parties Make America Great Again?","nprByline":"\u003ca href=\"https://civileats.com/author/cganeles/\">Caryn Ganeles\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/civileat\">Civil Eats\u003c/a>","path":"/bayareabites/129181/can-dinner-parties-make-america-great-again","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cem>From culinary diplomacy to feeding the resistance, people are turning to shared meals as a way to communicate across political and cultural divides.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a clear night last November, nearly one year after the 2016 election, 10 strangers ranging in age from 25 to 56 gathered in the dining room of a downtown Brooklyn apartment.

These organizations intend to use the positive feelings associated with meal time to make participants feel comfortable with one another and encourage them to hear new points of view without shutting down or lashing out.\u003cbr>\n\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo.jpg\" alt=\"Make America Dinner Again\" width=\"557\" height=\"557\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-129188\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo.jpg 557w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-160x160.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-240x240.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-375x375.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-520x520.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/180614-dinner-parties-mada-logo-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\">\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.makeamericadinneragain.com/\">Make America Dinner Again\u003c/a> (MADA), a culinary diplomacy project, organized the Brooklyn dinner attended by Phillips and Phelan. The project was founded by Bay Area friends Justine Lee and Tria Chang as a reaction to how shocked they were by the results of the 2016 election. Anyone around the country can host a dinner using a downloadable template that includes ground rules, icebreakers, guided activities, and closing reflections. Over two dozen dinners have taken place since the group launched in early 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Have these dinners been successful in fostering warm feelings between ideological adversaries? Tom Speaker, coordinator of the New York chapter, isn’t sure. “It’s not like we can measure what direct effect we have on polarization in terms of numbers,” explains Speaker. “All you can really measure are the stories.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scholar and author Sam Chapple-Sokol, inspired by stories of how food has been used to bridge divides, coined the term “\u003ca href=\"http://booksandjournals.brillonline.com/content/journals/10.1163/1871191x-12341244\">culinary diplomacy\u003c/a>” in 2012 to describe this phenomenon. His research focuses on the use of food to foster discussion and aid in negotiations. “The easiest way to win hearts and minds is through the stomach,” says Chapple-Sokol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Bourdain, who passed away earlier this month at the age of 61, was famous for his belief that food can be a way to learn about other people and other cultures. “Meals make the society, hold the fabric together in lots of ways that were charming and interesting and intoxicating to me,” Bourdain said in \u003ca href=\"https://bookpage.com/interviews/8122-anthony-bourdain\">an interview in 2001\u003c/a>. “The perfect meal, or the best meals, occur in a context that frequently has very little to do with the food itself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the term used to describe these activities is new, using food to bring people together is not a novel idea. Today’s trends build on a history of culinary diplomacy. From Biblical times comes the phrase “breaking bread,” which can mean both sharing a meal and finding understanding between two parties. In more modern times, an article in the October 1959 issue of the \u003cem>Journal of Home Economics \u003c/em>features a junior high class preparing international meals and eating together to “promote better understanding of other countries.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More recently, the \u003ca href=\"https://2009-2017.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2012/09/197375.htm\">Diplomatic Culinary Partnership program\u003c/a> was launched by the U.S. State Department in 2012 under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The high-profile initiative involved sending \u003ca href=\"http://www.laweekly.com/restaurants/the-state-department-unveils-the-diplomatic-culinary-partnership-2381915\">U.S. celebrity chefs\u003c/a> around the world to cook at foreign embassies, host local dinners for the public, and collaborate with celebrated chefs in host countries. Lauren Bernstein, former director of the program from 2012 to 2017, saw it as a tool to soften both high-level diplomatic relationships and the perception of the American public as a whole. “We were able to reach so many people, because everyone loves food,” says Bernstein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Culinary diplomacy is not without its critics. Sending wealthy chefs into other countries doesn’t necessarily accomplish much, according to Alina Dolea, a scholar of international communication at the University of California at Berkeley. In practice, this form of culinary diplomacy functions more like a glossy public relations campaign than a real attempt at dialogue, she writes in \u003cem>The Routledge Handbook of Critical Public Relations. \u003c/em>She argues that the people who have access to the resources and events involved in this type of activity are often not the ones who are most in need of understanding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not everyone is as cynical as Dolea. One of the recent examples of culinary diplomacy is \u003ca href=\"https://www.conflictkitchen.org/\">Conflict Kitchen\u003c/a>, a restaurant in Pittsburgh founded by Carnegie Mellon University professor Jon Rubin and artist Dawn Weleski in 2010. By serving foods from countries with which the United States is in conflict, Conflict Kitchen aims to humanize these nations and reframe the discussion about how war affects civilian life. Rubin and Weleski rewrote the menu seven times to cover cuisines from Iran, Afghanistan, Cuba, North Korea, Palestine, Venezuela, and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, an indigenous tribe from upstate New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The restaurant augments its activities by hosting events like “Join a Local Palestinian for Lunch,” aspiring to create connections between local residents and people from other cultures. Their methods contrast with the State Department initiative by keeping the food affordable and making the experience open to all, not just those with access and resources. For their work, Rubin and Weleski were nominated for an International Award for Public Art by The Institute for Public Art in Hong Kong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cookbook author Julia Turshen has also been a vocal advocate for using food as a tool for social justice and sparking discussion. Her bestselling 2017 \u003ca href=\"https://civileats.com/2017/10/03/julia-turshen-wants-to-feed-the-resistance/\">cookbook\u003c/a> \u003cem>Feed the Resistance\u003c/em> provides recipes for physical and mental nourishment for activists, from chef Preeti Mistry’s tikka masala macaroni and cheese to an essay titled “How Food Can Impact Communities” by La Cocina’s Caleb Zigas. In April, Turshen launched \u003ca href=\"https://equityatthetable.com/\">Equity at the Table\u003c/a> (EATT), a searchable online database of diverse voices in the food industry. “I plan to continue to use my work as a way to center marginalized voices and to shift the industry in a more equitable direction (not to be confused with a more equal one),” says Turshen. “I’m not interested in merely adding seats to the table – I’m invested in shifting who gets to do the inviting and the table setting.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some dinner parties are being used to challenge rather than comfort. \u003ca href=\"http://www.fromlagos.com/dinnerseries/\">Blackness in America\u003c/a> is a series hosted by Nigerian chef and author Tunde Wey that explores themes like police brutality, sexism, and violence through the lens of race. From 2016 to 2017, Wey organized 20 intimate dinners attended by a mix of Black and non-Black people. To orient the discussion to his personal experience of being Black in America, Wey cooked and served a rotating menu of homestyle Nigerian food, including his favorite jollof rice flavored with scorching scotch bonnet peppers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike MADA and Conflict Kitchen, Wey’s goal with Blackness in America isn’t tied to generating warm and comfortable feelings. He wants diners to be speak honestly about tough topics, even if it’s difficult and stirs up painful emotions. “I think that discomfort can be instructive,” explains Wey. “I’m not actively seeking discomfort for my guests, but when you’re talking about uncomfortable things, and you’re talking about them honestly and in an intimate way, you’re bound to be uncomfortable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003ca href=\"https://civileats.com/2018/03/01/at-this-pop-up-lunch-counter-race-is-included-in-the-bill/\">current project\u003c/a>, named after Saartjie Baartman, a Black South African woman who was taken to Europe in the 1800s and paraded as a sexualized spectacle and oddity, Wey is tackling privilege and race. The venture began earlier this year as a month-long pop-up restaurant in New Orleans where patrons could choose to pay different amounts based on their race. In May, Wey hosted a series of \u003ca href=\"https://www.metrotimes.com/table-and-bar/archives/2018/03/26/tunde-ways-hamtramck-pop-up-will-explore-race-privilege-and-charity\">four dinners in Detroit\u003c/a> where diners experienced their meal differently based on a survey they filled out about their existing privilege.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of these are modest, low-profile events. MADA is optimistic that their latest host will raise the group’s profile: Glenn Beck. Beck took an interest in MADA after reading \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/eveturowpaul/2017/12/12/the-political-and-communal-power-of-dinnertime/#3c195e58ada4\">an article\u003c/a> about it in \u003cem>Forbes\u003c/em>and seeing how it relates to his desire to continue political discourse and promote free speech. He hosted \u003ca href=\"https://www.glennbeck.com/2018/04/27/watch-the-full-episode-make-america-dinner-again/\">and filmed\u003c/a> his own MADA event this past April and plans to host many more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our first dinner modeled after MADA felt the way many Americans feel,” Beck told Civil Eats. “People feel that they aren’t being heard. Many power brokers have recognized this, but rarely do they ask, ‘who is actually and honestly listening without agenda?’ I hope we continue this trend to model how easy this really can be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the Brooklyn dining room, Anne Phelan voiced her opinion that welfare recipients should not be drug tested, and to her surprise, conservative Nick Phillips agreed. While neither came away feeling like their minds had been changed about any of the issues they discussed, they both agreed that the group dinner setting changed the dynamic. “It was the least confrontational possible way to talk about this stuff,” says Phelan, “and the tacos were pretty good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article was originally published on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/civileat\">Civil Eats\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/129181/can-dinner-parties-make-america-great-again","authors":["byline_bayareabites_129181"],"categories":["bayareabites_11028","bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_4084","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_2213","bayareabites_16195"],"featImg":"bayareabites_129189","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_129169":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_129169","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"129169","score":null,"sort":[1530205548000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"anthony-bourdains-legacy-shines-on-in-cajun-country","title":"Anthony Bourdain's Legacy Shines On In Cajun Country","publishDate":1530205548,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_129171\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 4592px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/06/cheslow-nola-bourdain-12-98fc9c251717932b7a1b74d255911f210b284ede.jpg\" alt=\"Toby Rodriguez (left) launched a career as a traveling butcher after he was featured on a 2011 episode of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations.

His first foray was a 2003 episode of his early Food Network show, A Cook's Tour. He was overfed at a \"VIP\" table in the bed of an old pickup truck outside \u003ca href=\"http://jacques-imos.com/\">Jacques-Imo's Cafe\u003c/a>. The owner rode with Bourdain, still seated, like battered royalty back to his hotel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain returned to the area to film for each of his three ensuing TV series – in New Orleans in 2008 and 2013, Cajun country in 2011, and most recently, back in Lafayette. He captured a region influenced culturally and environmentally by generations of intermingling French, Africans, Native Americans, and Europeans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are parts of America that are special, unique, unlike anywhere else,\" Bourdain says on \u003cem>Parts Unknown.\u003c/em> \"Cultures all their own, kept close, much loved but largely misunderstood. The vast patchwork of saltwater marshes, bayous, and prairie land that make up Cajun country is one of those places.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For his final episode from the region, Bourdain attended a Cajun Mardi Gras, which this year fell in February. In New Orleans, the Catholic holiday is marked with parades, parties, plastic beads and jazz music on the last day before Lent. \"Ordinarily, I loathe the idea of Mardi Gras,\" Bourdain narrates. \"But Cajun Mardi Gras is another thing entirely — closer to the ancient French tradition, vaguely more dangerous, downright medieval.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain goes to Mamou, La. — three hours west of New Orleans by car — for the notorious Mardi Gras run. Men (all the participants are men) cover their faces with elaborate masks, wear costumes from head to toe, drink themselves into a daze, then ride on horseback from house to house, chasing live chickens to cook in a holiday stew. The next day, Bourdain gets his forehead smeared with a cross for Ash Wednesday. \"Got right with God,\" he deadpans. \"Let's eat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But aside from highlighting the unique Cajun and Creole cultures of the area, Bourdain had a profound, direct impact on its people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take, for example, Toby Rodriguez. He is seen in the 2018 episode running the kitchen of an evening dance party known as a \u003cem>fais dodo\u003c/em>. It's part of a weeklong celebration before Mardi Gras. Seven years earlier, Rodriguez had appeared on Bourdain's No Reservations, directing a boucherie — a day-long hog butchering. (\"So much joy from one animal,\" Bourdain exclaims.) After that episode aired, Rodriguez says, there was \"an immediate tidal wave of attention and interest in this thing I didn't think was that special.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He launched a traveling boucherie business, loading handmade tools and cast iron cauldrons into a U-Haul truck and driving to clients in Washington state, Michigan, Texas, Missouri, North Carolina and Brooklyn. Two years ago, Rodriguez was invited to cook at Slow Food's prestigious Terra Madre festival in Italy. \"It was like time stood still,\" Rodriguez says. Now he has plans to open an informal whole-animal restaurant in the Crescent City.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rodriguez had been looking forward to updating Bourdain on his meteoric rise during the recent filming. But there was no time. \"He was a bit removed, tired,\" Rodriguez says. \"I wondered how difficult it must be to be him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lolis Elie, a journalist, food historian and screenwriter, worked alongside Bourdain on an episode of the HBO show \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/08/20/213493937/treme-cookbook-captures-the-flavor-of-a-show-and-a-city\">Treme\u003c/a> that focused on a working-class New Orleans neighborhood's recovery from Hurricane Katrina. Bourdain wrote the character of cook Janette Desautel, who shuts her restaurant and heads to New York for a series of bruising jobs in top kitchens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't want to minimize Tony's significance or the quality of his work about New Orleans,\" Elie tells NPR. \"But literally people have been talking about New Orleans for centuries.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Elie says, \"my respect for [Bourdain] is immense and unyielding\" for an incident that happened off-camera. Elie says in 2011 he asked Bourdain to donate a signed book to raise funds for New Orleans chef Nathanial Zimet, who was shot and badly injured outside his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The attack came as Zimet and his business partner, James Denio, had just opened their restaurant, called Boucherie, after years of running a successful food truck business. Bourdain donated a stack of autographed books and a personal check for Zimet's care, then appeared for dinner at Boucherie and stayed late to exchange stories with the cooks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zimet eventually recovered and returned to the kitchen. On a recent June morning, he sat at a picnic table in the sunny, humid open air and reviewed a new menu with his staff: ribs with spicy-fried okra; long-cooked yellow beet ravioli; duck with pickled blueberries. Zimet never met Bourdain but says his gesture touched him: \"He said, 'Hey, you're not alone.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lafayette restaurateur Jacques Rodrigue says Bourdain \"did a great job in showcasing our culture.\" That included highlighting local produce instead of the usual food-media focus on the area's deep-fried seafood, which is \"not necessarily what everybody ate at home,\" Rodrigue says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Artist Chuck Broussard (no relation to Madonna Broussard) worries \"that in general they overemphasized the amount of drinking in Louisiana. I would hate for people to think it's all drinking.\" Still, he concedes, \"They got it right for that Mardi Gras event.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rodriguez, the traveling butcher, says Bourdain was accurate and unflinching. Of the 2011 production, Rodriguez says, \"it was the best representation ever done to date.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every time that someone does something about Cajun country, about Acadiana, it's comedic,\" Rodriguez says. Bourdain's take was different. \"This was beautiful, it was serious, and it was intense. It was a romantic approach to representing who we are.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2018 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Although he traveled the world over, the chef and TV host kept coming back to explore Cajun food culture in Louisiana in a thoughtful way.

His first foray was a 2003 episode of his early Food Network show, A Cook's Tour. He was overfed at a \"VIP\" table in the bed of an old pickup truck outside \u003ca href=\"http://jacques-imos.com/\">Jacques-Imo's Cafe\u003c/a>. The owner rode with Bourdain, still seated, like battered royalty back to his hotel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain returned to the area to film for each of his three ensuing TV series – in New Orleans in 2008 and 2013, Cajun country in 2011, and most recently, back in Lafayette. He captured a region influenced culturally and environmentally by generations of intermingling French, Africans, Native Americans, and Europeans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are parts of America that are special, unique, unlike anywhere else,\" Bourdain says on \u003cem>Parts Unknown.\u003c/em> \"Cultures all their own, kept close, much loved but largely misunderstood. The vast patchwork of saltwater marshes, bayous, and prairie land that make up Cajun country is one of those places.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For his final episode from the region, Bourdain attended a Cajun Mardi Gras, which this year fell in February. In New Orleans, the Catholic holiday is marked with parades, parties, plastic beads and jazz music on the last day before Lent. \"Ordinarily, I loathe the idea of Mardi Gras,\" Bourdain narrates. \"But Cajun Mardi Gras is another thing entirely — closer to the ancient French tradition, vaguely more dangerous, downright medieval.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain goes to Mamou, La. — three hours west of New Orleans by car — for the notorious Mardi Gras run. Men (all the participants are men) cover their faces with elaborate masks, wear costumes from head to toe, drink themselves into a daze, then ride on horseback from house to house, chasing live chickens to cook in a holiday stew. The next day, Bourdain gets his forehead smeared with a cross for Ash Wednesday. \"Got right with God,\" he deadpans. \"Let's eat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But aside from highlighting the unique Cajun and Creole cultures of the area, Bourdain had a profound, direct impact on its people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take, for example, Toby Rodriguez. He is seen in the 2018 episode running the kitchen of an evening dance party known as a \u003cem>fais dodo\u003c/em>. It's part of a weeklong celebration before Mardi Gras. Seven years earlier, Rodriguez had appeared on Bourdain's No Reservations, directing a boucherie — a day-long hog butchering. (\"So much joy from one animal,\" Bourdain exclaims.) After that episode aired, Rodriguez says, there was \"an immediate tidal wave of attention and interest in this thing I didn't think was that special.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He launched a traveling boucherie business, loading handmade tools and cast iron cauldrons into a U-Haul truck and driving to clients in Washington state, Michigan, Texas, Missouri, North Carolina and Brooklyn. Two years ago, Rodriguez was invited to cook at Slow Food's prestigious Terra Madre festival in Italy. \"It was like time stood still,\" Rodriguez says. Now he has plans to open an informal whole-animal restaurant in the Crescent City.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rodriguez had been looking forward to updating Bourdain on his meteoric rise during the recent filming. But there was no time. \"He was a bit removed, tired,\" Rodriguez says. \"I wondered how difficult it must be to be him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lolis Elie, a journalist, food historian and screenwriter, worked alongside Bourdain on an episode of the HBO show \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2013/08/20/213493937/treme-cookbook-captures-the-flavor-of-a-show-and-a-city\">Treme\u003c/a> that focused on a working-class New Orleans neighborhood's recovery from Hurricane Katrina. Bourdain wrote the character of cook Janette Desautel, who shuts her restaurant and heads to New York for a series of bruising jobs in top kitchens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't want to minimize Tony's significance or the quality of his work about New Orleans,\" Elie tells NPR. \"But literally people have been talking about New Orleans for centuries.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Elie says, \"my respect for [Bourdain] is immense and unyielding\" for an incident that happened off-camera. Elie says in 2011 he asked Bourdain to donate a signed book to raise funds for New Orleans chef Nathanial Zimet, who was shot and badly injured outside his home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The attack came as Zimet and his business partner, James Denio, had just opened their restaurant, called Boucherie, after years of running a successful food truck business. Bourdain donated a stack of autographed books and a personal check for Zimet's care, then appeared for dinner at Boucherie and stayed late to exchange stories with the cooks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zimet eventually recovered and returned to the kitchen. On a recent June morning, he sat at a picnic table in the sunny, humid open air and reviewed a new menu with his staff: ribs with spicy-fried okra; long-cooked yellow beet ravioli; duck with pickled blueberries. Zimet never met Bourdain but says his gesture touched him: \"He said, 'Hey, you're not alone.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lafayette restaurateur Jacques Rodrigue says Bourdain \"did a great job in showcasing our culture.\" That included highlighting local produce instead of the usual food-media focus on the area's deep-fried seafood, which is \"not necessarily what everybody ate at home,\" Rodrigue says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Artist Chuck Broussard (no relation to Madonna Broussard) worries \"that in general they overemphasized the amount of drinking in Louisiana. I would hate for people to think it's all drinking.\" Still, he concedes, \"They got it right for that Mardi Gras event.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rodriguez, the traveling butcher, says Bourdain was accurate and unflinching. Of the 2011 production, Rodriguez says, \"it was the best representation ever done to date.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every time that someone does something about Cajun country, about Acadiana, it's comedic,\" Rodriguez says. Bourdain's take was different. \"This was beautiful, it was serious, and it was intense. It was a romantic approach to representing who we are.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2018 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/129169/anthony-bourdains-legacy-shines-on-in-cajun-country","authors":["byline_bayareabites_129169"],"categories":["bayareabites_63","bayareabites_11028","bayareabites_10028"],"tags":["bayareabites_2213","bayareabites_16193"],"featImg":"bayareabites_129170","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_128903":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_128903","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"128903","score":null,"sort":[1529360313000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"jacques-pepin-shares-memories-of-anthony-bourdain","title":"Jacques Pépin Shares Memories of Anthony Bourdain","publishDate":1529360313,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>Jacques Pépin and Anthony Bourdain were friends for 25 years, each an internationally acclaimed chef, television personality, and author. \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/jpepinheart/\">Pépin\u003c/a>, a longtime KQED contributor, was in many ways Bourdain’s role model, the authentic authority he aspired to be.

Mostly, because I took him seriously and respected his writing about what really happens in the kitchen. People throwing out baskets of bread, for instance, bread that had been served but not eaten.

He had been making the point about how for ages cooks had resided at the bottom of the social scale. And yet, today, in our time, that was changing, and we were becoming famous. We were now on par with the painters, and people in haute couture. His work and his words have been an important part of why that is happening. I guess the point is he was an extremely honest and genuine person with the courage to speak up. And he expressed his thanks to me for helping enable that in him. He certainly had no patience for fakery and false stuff. On his CNN show Parts Unknown he had this uncanny ability to sit down with some of the world’s greatest chefs, in Italy or France or in America. And at the same time discover women cooking behind small stoves in Libya, Vietnam or Mexico and elevate them to the same value and level. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching his shows I would experience the culture of a country in a way I hadn’t known, in Vietnam or Lebanon or the Bronx. He revealed the food in such a way that it became a window into the people and their values and aspirations. And as we began to understand their food, we began to understand their culture. He did this by getting close to the people, truly talking and connecting with them, sharing culinary and other experiences. He was so much more than a reporter flying in for an interview. And yet when it came to interviewing he was excellent, very scrupulous and honest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tina: He always gave credit to the workers in the kitchen, too.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jacques:\u003c/strong> Yeah, absolutely. Unpretentious and humble. I always repeat to people what he said to me: “I was never a great chef, I cook in the kitchen.” And, yes, there was always credit for the guys he worked with in the kitchen, in America, especially, he celebrated the work of the immigrants from Mexico and Central and South America. And at the same time he was friends with some of the greatest chefs from France. Eric Ripert, the chef-owner of Le Bernardin in New York, was one of Tony’s closest friends. Tony connected people in the culinary world to each other in a way that democratized cooking. I don't think anyone has done that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tina: If you were sharing a meal with him, what would it be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jacques:\u003c/strong> Oh boy.

He was chef at a restaurant called \u003ca href=\"https://ny.eater.com/2018/6/12/17455134/anthony-bourdain-les-halles-memorial-nyc\">Brasserie Les Halles\u003c/a> on Park Avenue in New York. One of the chefs that he worked with was a Spanish guy who studied at the first French Culinary Institute in New York, where I was teaching. He took me to meet Tony at Les Halles. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tina: Did you ever get a chance to work with him in the kitchen?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jacques:\u003c/strong> No, I never worked with him. We did events together and I know that in his book “\u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Kitchen-Confidential-Updated-Adventures-Underbelly/dp/0060899220\">Kitchen Confidential\u003c/a>,” he said that I helped make him become what he became. Mostly, because I took him seriously and respected his writing about what really happens in the kitchen. People throwing out baskets of bread, for instance, bread that had been served but not eaten. Today, thanks in part to Tony speaking out, people are recycling that bread, and I am glad they do. I mean, my father would have killed me if I threw out a piece of bread. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About three years ago, I did an event with Tony at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.92y.org/\">92nd Street Y\u003c/a> in New York.

I decided that I would give paintings to everyone who had contributed to the film, from Tony to Fareed Zakaria. So I sent him a list with pictures of the paintings and told him to choose one.

He had been making the point about how for ages cooks had resided at the bottom of the social scale. And yet, today, in our time, that was changing, and we were becoming famous. We were now on par with the painters, and people in haute couture. His work and his words have been an important part of why that is happening. I guess the point is he was an extremely honest and genuine person with the courage to speak up. And he expressed his thanks to me for helping enable that in him. He certainly had no patience for fakery and false stuff. On his CNN show Parts Unknown he had this uncanny ability to sit down with some of the world’s greatest chefs, in Italy or France or in America. And at the same time discover women cooking behind small stoves in Libya, Vietnam or Mexico and elevate them to the same value and level. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching his shows I would experience the culture of a country in a way I hadn’t known, in Vietnam or Lebanon or the Bronx. He revealed the food in such a way that it became a window into the people and their values and aspirations. And as we began to understand their food, we began to understand their culture. He did this by getting close to the people, truly talking and connecting with them, sharing culinary and other experiences. He was so much more than a reporter flying in for an interview. And yet when it came to interviewing he was excellent, very scrupulous and honest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tina: He always gave credit to the workers in the kitchen, too.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jacques:\u003c/strong> Yeah, absolutely. Unpretentious and humble. I always repeat to people what he said to me: “I was never a great chef, I cook in the kitchen.” And, yes, there was always credit for the guys he worked with in the kitchen, in America, especially, he celebrated the work of the immigrants from Mexico and Central and South America. And at the same time he was friends with some of the greatest chefs from France. Eric Ripert, the chef-owner of Le Bernardin in New York, was one of Tony’s closest friends. Tony connected people in the culinary world to each other in a way that democratized cooking. I don't think anyone has done that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tina: If you were sharing a meal with him, what would it be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jacques:\u003c/strong> Oh boy. I tell you it would be very straightforward. Very good wine and I'm not talking about very expensive wine. Good wine, good beer, a lobster roll, a roast chicken, a salad. That's what he would like. Something simple, with taste.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This interview was edited for length and clarity.\u003c/em>\t\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/128903/jacques-pepin-shares-memories-of-anthony-bourdain","authors":["11303"],"categories":["bayareabites_63","bayareabites_11028","bayareabites_10028"],"tags":["bayareabites_2213","bayareabites_242"],"featImg":"bayareabites_129003","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_128897":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_128897","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"128897","score":null,"sort":[1528691343000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"anthony-bourdain-serving-up-inclusion","title":"Anthony Bourdain: Serving Up Inclusion","publishDate":1528691343,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>Anthony Bourdain is being mourned, of course, by fellow chefs and foodies for his sardonic exposés about what \u003cem>really \u003c/em>happens in the kitchens of some of America's best restaurants.

In his \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53pRNV8wAws\">acceptance speech\u003c/a>, made by video, Bourdain said, \"The world has visited many terrible things on the Palestinian people, none more shameful than robbing them of their basic humanity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain's death revealed another talent most of us knew nothing about. Laila El-Haddad, his co-author of \u003cem>The Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey\u003c/em>, posted a photo on Twitter of Bourdain with her and her tiny daughter. \"He was a master baby whisperer, and a master storyteller, having rocked my 7 month old to sleep in the middle of shooting our episode.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let's not forget that Anthony Bourdain was one of the few prominent media personalities who regularly humanized Muslims and Arabs as regular, everyday people-without politicizing their lives or stories,\" tweeted Khaled Beydoun, a law professor at the University of Detroit Mercy, and author of \u003cem>American\u003c/em> \u003cem>Islamophobia\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Africa, Bourdain declared the continent, \"one of the best arguments for travel I can think of,\" and lauded its ability to exist as a \"functioning multicultural, multilingual, extraordinarily TOLERANT society ...

Despite our ridiculously hypocritical attitudes towards immigration, we demand that Mexicans cook a large percentage of the food we eat, grow the ingredients we need to make that food, clean our houses, mow our lawns, wash our dishes, look after our children.

In his \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53pRNV8wAws\">acceptance speech\u003c/a>, made by video, Bourdain said, \"The world has visited many terrible things on the Palestinian people, none more shameful than robbing them of their basic humanity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain's death revealed another talent most of us knew nothing about. Laila El-Haddad, his co-author of \u003cem>The Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey\u003c/em>, posted a photo on Twitter of Bourdain with her and her tiny daughter. \"He was a master baby whisperer, and a master storyteller, having rocked my 7 month old to sleep in the middle of shooting our episode.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let's not forget that Anthony Bourdain was one of the few prominent media personalities who regularly humanized Muslims and Arabs as regular, everyday people-without politicizing their lives or stories,\" tweeted Khaled Beydoun, a law professor at the University of Detroit Mercy, and author of \u003cem>American\u003c/em> \u003cem>Islamophobia\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Africa, Bourdain declared the continent, \"one of the best arguments for travel I can think of,\" and lauded its ability to exist as a \"functioning multicultural, multilingual, extraordinarily TOLERANT society ...

And he meant not just in the film industry: \"Right now, nothing else matters but women's stories of what it's like in the industry I have loved and celebrated for nearly 30 years...\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also clapped back at the country's growing anti-immigrant, especially anti-Mexican, sentiment. \u003ca href=\"http://anthonybourdain.tumblr.com/post/84641290831/under-the-volcano\">On his blog in 2014\u003c/a>, Bourdain noted that, \"Americans love Mexican food ... Despite our ridiculously hypocritical attitudes towards immigration, we demand that Mexicans cook a large percentage of the food we eat, grow the ingredients we need to make that food, clean our houses, mow our lawns, wash our dishes, look after our children. As any chef will tell you, our entire service economy—the restaurant business as we know it—in most American cities, would collapse overnight without Mexican workers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's noticing things like that — and being unafraid to voice those observations in his books, blogs and on his television shows, that made Anthony Bourdain beloved, even revered, by the many communities of marginalized people that he visited, touched and supported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2018 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/128897/anthony-bourdain-serving-up-inclusion","authors":["byline_bayareabites_128897"],"categories":["bayareabites_63","bayareabites_11028","bayareabites_2090","bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_2213"],"featImg":"bayareabites_128898","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_128831":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_128831","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"128831","score":null,"sort":[1528475580000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"anthony-bourdain-has-died-at-61-cnn-says","title":"Anthony Bourdain, Chef And Television Host, Has Died At 61","publishDate":1528475580,"format":"standard","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 12:28 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chef and television host Anthony Bourdain was found dead in a hotel room in France, his employer CNN said in \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/08/us/anthony-bourdain-obit/index.html?utm_content=2018-06-08T11%3A21%3A43&utm_term=image&utm_source=twCNN&utm_medium=social\">a statement\u003c/a> Friday morning.

It was professional cooking's unsavoriness that attracted him, said Bourdain, who dropped out of college in the early 1970s and transferred to The Culinary Institute of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I wanted it all: the cuts and burns on hands and wrists, the ghoulish kitchen humor, the free food, the pilfered booze, the camaraderie that flourished within rigid order and nerve-shattering chaos,\" he wrote. \"I love the sheer weirdness of the kitchen life: the dreamers, the crackpots, the refugees, and the sociopaths with whom I continue to work; the ever-present smells of roasting bones, searing fish, and simmering liquids; the noise and clatter, the hiss and spray, the flames, the smoke, and the steam.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/02/13/anthony-bourdains-moveable-feast\">was open\u003c/a> about having kicked addictions to heroin and cocaine.

And he believed that you learn the most from the people who make food that other people actually want to eat day in and day out, not just on special occasions.

He was open about the fact that he mostly had a TV show so he could travel all over the world and meet people and eat. If he seemed to be profoundly driven about anything, it was not building the most restaurants. It was understanding more of the world each year than he had the year before. And he never suggested pity for the people he visited, no matter what their circumstances.

He was creative and funny, once saying a particularly problematic lobster had the texture of \"doll head.\" Let's be honest: That doesn't even really mean anything. But it's still perfect. You have never tasted a doll head, and yet you somehow know what waxy, unsettling, inanimate plasticity he was going for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Enthusiast.\" Yes, exactly. In the way that enthusiasm is best understood not as bland and undiscerning rah-rah pump of the fist, but as undiluted appetite. To see more, do more, talk more, learn more, eat more, walk more, set foot on more acres of ground, float on more stretches of water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Bourdain, like Roger Ebert before him, had simply grown into one of my guides. Not a moral guide like Jiminy Cricket — he would have been the first to recommend against seeing him that way — but a guide to being, as to paraphrase John Muir, in the world rather than just on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bourdain began his career as \u003ca href=\"https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1999/04/19/dont-eat-before-reading-this\">a commentator in \u003cem>The New Yorker\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem> \u003c/em>explaining that restaurant kitchens were bloody and merciless, chefs were judgmental and vain, everyone was on drugs, and you should not kid yourself about it. It looked, at that time, like his legacy would be rock-star-like, maybe even (ugh) bad-boy-like, ascending to a throne of faux-daring that was all about shock. He was a wonderful writer, evocative and specific and fearless, and if he had wanted to write about restaurant underbellies forever, he could have been that guy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This turned out to be not the case at all. He will be remembered for his curiosity — and curiosity is hopeful. To be an enthusiast is to believe that you will duck around the next corner and find a place where you've never had anything like the bowl of noodles they're going to make for you. To be an explorer, always, without hesitation, is the opposite of cynicism. It's the opposite of surrender to all the blood and innards and, to quote one of his book titles, the nasty bits. To wander is to believe in the expansive worth of the world you live in, and to have faith that you have not run out of people to meet or places to visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I will miss this deceptively optimistic outlook, among other things. Bourdain may have had a snarl, a cutting tongue and closets full of demons he was often fairly open about. But he treated the world as if he had not given up on it. He treated it as if, at any moment, it might open itself wider, reveal a crack into which he hadn't ever slipped, with pen and paper, with a flashlight and a fork. And he might be able to help other people understand what was inside. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

It looked, at that time, like his legacy would be rock-star-like, maybe even (ugh) bad-boy-like, ascending to a throne of faux-daring that was all about shock. He was a wonderful writer, evocative and specific and fearless, and if he had wanted to write about restaurant underbellies forever, he could have been that guy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This turned out to be not the case at all. He will be remembered for his curiosity — and curiosity is hopeful. To be an enthusiast is to believe that you will duck around the next corner and find a place where you've never had anything like the bowl of noodles they're going to make for you. To be an explorer, always, without hesitation, is the opposite of cynicism. It's the opposite of surrender to all the blood and innards and, to quote one of his book titles, the nasty bits. To wander is to believe in the expansive worth of the world you live in, and to have faith that you have not run out of people to meet or places to visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I will miss this deceptively optimistic outlook, among other things. Bourdain may have had a snarl, a cutting tongue and closets full of demons he was often fairly open about. But he treated the world as if he had not given up on it. He treated it as if, at any moment, it might open itself wider, reveal a crack into which he hadn't ever slipped, with pen and paper, with a flashlight and a fork. And he might be able to help other people understand what was inside. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

I wanted to make a beautiful cookbook, [a] creative-looking one, spoken in honest, straight-forward, casual terms that gives the reader reasonable expectations, that encourages them to organize themselves in the way that I've found to be useful as a professional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's also reflective of, I think, age, and all those years in the restaurant business. Most chefs I know after work do not want to go out to dinner and be forced to think about what they're eating in a critical or analytical way. They want to experience food as they did as children, in an emotional way.

I was the kid that if you hired me to shovel your walk in winter, I would really do a terrible job of it, probably find a way to weasel out. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The kitchen brigade [were] the first people whose respect I wanted, and the first time in my life that I went home feeling respect for myself. It was very hard work. You had to be there on time. There were certain absolutes, certain absolute rules, and for whatever reason I responded to that. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was a happy dishwasher. I jokingly say that I learned every important lesson, all the most important lessons of my life, as a dishwasher. In some ways that's true. Thomas Keller, the great chef, talks about ... the magic of discovering that you line the dirty dishes up, you push them in the machine, and they come out clean every time. There's something very comforting about that. ... I still like being at the bottom of a steep learning curve. I liked being the worst in the kitchen and struggling every day to earn respect and status within that hierarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On writing\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> his first cookbook, \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Kitchen Confidential,\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>and finding his writing voice\u003cem>\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think, to a great extent, the reason \u003cem>Kitchen Confidential\u003c/em> sounds like it does is I just didn't have the luxury or the burden of a lot of time to sit around and contemplate the mysteries of the universe. I had to wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning, write for an hour and a half, and then I had to go to work to a real job. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was liberating in the sense that I had no time to think about what I was writing. I certainly had no customer or reader in mind, because I was quite sure no one would ever read it. That was in many ways a very liberating place to be. I've kind of tried to stick with that business model since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>twice\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>being given the honor to kill a pig for a village feast in Borneo \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That first time I don't think I had ever killed an animal before. I had been ordering them up as a chef over the phone, so I was culpable in the death of many animals. But here I was being asked to physically plunge a spear into the heart of a pig. It seemed to me the height of hypocrisy, however uncomfortable I might've been with that, to put it off on somebody else. I had been responsible for the death of many animals. Here I'm being asked, I didn't want to let the team down. I didn't want to dishonor the village or embarrass anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first time was very, very, very, very difficult. My camera guys almost passed out, it was certainly very difficult for me. The second time, as much as I'd like to say that it was still really hard, and I think I said in the voiceover, I don't know what it says about me, probably something very bad, that I have become — I have changed over time. I'd like to think in good ways, for the most part, but I've also become more callous. I've become able to plunge a spear into the heart of a screaming pig and live with that much more comfortably than I did the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On finding great neighborhood places and hearing reactions from locals \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ideally I'll go to a place, like I'll find a little bar in Rio, let's say, some little local place that perfectly expresses the neighborhood. It's not a tourist-friendly place, for lack of a better word, I hate this word but I'll use it anyway — \"authentic.\" I'll feature that on the show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The response I'm looking for is to hear from someone from the neighborhood saying, \"How did you ever find that place? I thought only we knew about it. It's truly a place that we love and is reflective of our culture and our neighborhood.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on the other hand, it's kind of a destructive process because if I name the place — and I don't always when it's a place like that — I change it. The next time I go back, there's tourists. There're people who've seen it on the show. Then I might hear from the same person from that neighborhood saying: \"You ruined my favorite bar!\" All the regular customers have run away and it's filled with tourists in ugly T-shirts and flip-flops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On food he hesitates to eat \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If freshness and hygiene is a question, generally it's tribal situations that are problematic, where the whole tribe, the chief is offering you something that's what they have. Often they don't have refrigeration, it's often old — their tolerance for meat that's even spoiled is higher than [that of] my relatively sensitive stomach. Often these dishes are eaten in one large bowl with the whole tribe jamming their fingers in. So yeah, rotten food, food that's clearly not clean, water that's clearly not good — those are a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the flavor spectrum, I'm pretty good with just about everything. ... When you get to, like, rotten shark in Iceland, I mean I could do it, but I'd rather not. Won't be doing that again. It's unpleasant but it's not the end of the world. I don't know, for sheer soul-destroying misery, if you're talking about a bite of food that just makes me question the future of the human race and sends me into a spiral of depression, I think eating an airport Johnny Rockets pretty much would be the nadir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On getting sick \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I've lost three days of work in 16 years ... only three days that I've been down for the count and confined to bed and desperately, horribly ill. Generally speaking, if it's, like, a street-food stall that's busy, even if it looks dirty as hell, if there are a lot of locals there and they're eating and they're happy, my crew will always eat at that place. Eating a Caesar salad at the major chain hotel in Central Africa or the Middle East, that's where you run into trouble, stomach-wise, generally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On losing interest in fine dining, because of his love of street food \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm happiest experiencing food in the most purely emotional way. And it's true of most of my chef friends as well. When it's, like, street food or a one-chef, one-dish operation, or somebody who's just really, really good at one or two or three things that they've been doing for a very long time, that's very reflective of their ethnicity or their culture or their nationality — those are the things that just make me happy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm spoiled, like a lot of fellow chefs. We get a lot of fine wines and dinners thrown our way and you do reach this enviable point where you just don't want to sit there for four hours, with course after course after course. It's too much, first of all. It doesn't feel good at the end of that time, and it's not interesting. And if the waiter is taking 10 minutes to describe each dish [and] it'll only take you three to eat it, something's really wrong. I think people lose sight of the fact that chefs should be ultimately in the pleasure business, not in the look-at-me business. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/programs/fresh-air/\">Fresh Air\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Anthony Bourdain's new cookbook features comfort food he cooks for his young daughter. \"She's who I need to please, and if she's not happy, I'm not happy,\" he says.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1477649833,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":34,"wordCount":1894},"headData":{"title":"In 'Appetites,' Bourdain Pleases The Toughest Food Critic (His 9-Year-Old) | KQED","description":"Anthony Bourdain's new cookbook features comfort food he cooks for his young daughter.

It was very hard work. You had to be there on time. There were certain absolutes, certain absolute rules, and for whatever reason I responded to that. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was a happy dishwasher. I jokingly say that I learned every important lesson, all the most important lessons of my life, as a dishwasher. In some ways that's true. Thomas Keller, the great chef, talks about ... the magic of discovering that you line the dirty dishes up, you push them in the machine, and they come out clean every time. There's something very comforting about that. ... I still like being at the bottom of a steep learning curve. I liked being the worst in the kitchen and struggling every day to earn respect and status within that hierarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On writing\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> his first cookbook, \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Kitchen Confidential,\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cem> \u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>and finding his writing voice\u003cem>\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think, to a great extent, the reason \u003cem>Kitchen Confidential\u003c/em> sounds like it does is I just didn't have the luxury or the burden of a lot of time to sit around and contemplate the mysteries of the universe. I had to wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning, write for an hour and a half, and then I had to go to work to a real job. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was liberating in the sense that I had no time to think about what I was writing. I certainly had no customer or reader in mind, because I was quite sure no one would ever read it. That was in many ways a very liberating place to be. I've kind of tried to stick with that business model since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>twice\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>being given the honor to kill a pig for a village feast in Borneo \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That first time I don't think I had ever killed an animal before. I had been ordering them up as a chef over the phone, so I was culpable in the death of many animals. But here I was being asked to physically plunge a spear into the heart of a pig. It seemed to me the height of hypocrisy, however uncomfortable I might've been with that, to put it off on somebody else. I had been responsible for the death of many animals. Here I'm being asked, I didn't want to let the team down. I didn't want to dishonor the village or embarrass anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first time was very, very, very, very difficult. My camera guys almost passed out, it was certainly very difficult for me. The second time, as much as I'd like to say that it was still really hard, and I think I said in the voiceover, I don't know what it says about me, probably something very bad, that I have become — I have changed over time. I'd like to think in good ways, for the most part, but I've also become more callous. I've become able to plunge a spear into the heart of a screaming pig and live with that much more comfortably than I did the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On finding great neighborhood places and hearing reactions from locals \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ideally I'll go to a place, like I'll find a little bar in Rio, let's say, some little local place that perfectly expresses the neighborhood. It's not a tourist-friendly place, for lack of a better word, I hate this word but I'll use it anyway — \"authentic.\" I'll feature that on the show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The response I'm looking for is to hear from someone from the neighborhood saying, \"How did you ever find that place? I thought only we knew about it. It's truly a place that we love and is reflective of our culture and our neighborhood.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on the other hand, it's kind of a destructive process because if I name the place — and I don't always when it's a place like that — I change it. The next time I go back, there's tourists. There're people who've seen it on the show. Then I might hear from the same person from that neighborhood saying: \"You ruined my favorite bar!\" All the regular customers have run away and it's filled with tourists in ugly T-shirts and flip-flops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On food he hesitates to eat \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If freshness and hygiene is a question, generally it's tribal situations that are problematic, where the whole tribe, the chief is offering you something that's what they have. Often they don't have refrigeration, it's often old — their tolerance for meat that's even spoiled is higher than [that of] my relatively sensitive stomach. Often these dishes are eaten in one large bowl with the whole tribe jamming their fingers in. So yeah, rotten food, food that's clearly not clean, water that's clearly not good — those are a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the flavor spectrum, I'm pretty good with just about everything. ... When you get to, like, rotten shark in Iceland, I mean I could do it, but I'd rather not. Won't be doing that again. It's unpleasant but it's not the end of the world. I don't know, for sheer soul-destroying misery, if you're talking about a bite of food that just makes me question the future of the human race and sends me into a spiral of depression, I think eating an airport Johnny Rockets pretty much would be the nadir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On getting sick \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I've lost three days of work in 16 years ... only three days that I've been down for the count and confined to bed and desperately, horribly ill. Generally speaking, if it's, like, a street-food stall that's busy, even if it looks dirty as hell, if there are a lot of locals there and they're eating and they're happy, my crew will always eat at that place. Eating a Caesar salad at the major chain hotel in Central Africa or the Middle East, that's where you run into trouble, stomach-wise, generally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On losing interest in fine dining, because of his love of street food \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm happiest experiencing food in the most purely emotional way. And it's true of most of my chef friends as well. When it's, like, street food or a one-chef, one-dish operation, or somebody who's just really, really good at one or two or three things that they've been doing for a very long time, that's very reflective of their ethnicity or their culture or their nationality — those are the things that just make me happy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm spoiled, like a lot of fellow chefs. We get a lot of fine wines and dinners thrown our way and you do reach this enviable point where you just don't want to sit there for four hours, with course after course after course. It's too much, first of all. It doesn't feel good at the end of that time, and it's not interesting. And if the waiter is taking 10 minutes to describe each dish [and] it'll only take you three to eat it, something's really wrong. I think people lose sight of the fact that chefs should be ultimately in the pleasure business, not in the look-at-me business. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/programs/fresh-air/\">Fresh Air\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/113076/in-appetites-bourdain-pleases-the-toughest-food-critic-his-9-year-old","authors":["5403"],"categories":["bayareabites_2254","bayareabites_588","bayareabites_11028","bayareabites_2407","bayareabites_2090","bayareabites_34"],"tags":["bayareabites_2213","bayareabites_15666","bayareabites_11278"],"featImg":"bayareabites_113077","label":"bayareabites"}},"programsReducer":{"possible":{"id":"possible","title":"Possible","info":"Possible is hosted by entrepreneur Reid Hoffman and writer Aria Finger.
