Poor Rachael. But then again, she is the worst thing to happen to celebrity chefs since Rocco Dispirito (another target of Bourdain, who I have a total gay mancrush on, and I'm not even gay).

Paula Deen is just horrifying. Fried foods are ruining americas paletes!

You should see her when she made giblet gravy. she was using her O face the whole time.

So much hate, so little love.

Being from the Isles I can appreciate the love of frying, everything does tastes better, especially candy. When I first hit these shores my housemate bought a deep fryer just for candy, it was sooo good. You should check out Eamonn’s on King Street in Alexandria, they have deep fried everything, milky way, bananas, battered burgers and battered sausage. Having travelled the US extensively, I would claim that this is the closest to a good ol’ fish and chip place this side of the Atlantic.

You must check out the seven sauces too, the curry is delic, I’m just trying to convince them to have a good gravy on the menu. Mmmm.

3 – everyone else sucks
4 – ray-ray sucks more than anyone
5- Oh, I also wrote a book.
6- Did I mention I have a tv show?

i think bourdain gets asked the same effing Qs every time he’s interviewed. i swear, i know the Q&As so well i could be his spokesperson. actually, i think i just found my new job… or at least a new ES feature…”what would anthony bourdain say…”
