CHEF SAMBRANO: Hong Kong- Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown

The world lost a prolific writer/chef in Anthony Bourdain. He was the trend setter, the real rocker chef. He penned his own book, and parts of his script. What chef can do that? When Anthony died we lost someone that could paint a picture of his travels around the world, without watching the t.v screen, as long as we could hear him speak, we got it. Indeed we got it. Now I can only imagine that Anthony is cooking up a storm with rock stars that entered heaven's gates before him, and he'll welcome new ones. In this episode Hong Kong on Parts Unknown, Bourdain accompanies cinematographer Christopher Doyle, who has produced countless films in Hong Kong. This episode like all of Bourdain's touches not only food, but the culture and interesting people that he encounters. Doyle finds beauty in things one may not find. Defining things in only how one can define it is in essense beauty.

In one instance at 13:18 of the video, Bourdain asks one of the guys eating the drunken chicken, "Is there a penis in there?" Jokingly of course, the guy laughs and says no. Bourdain's cutting edge style without the excess is perfect. Every episode was epic. If there's a boxset of his shows, I'll get it. He delves in the street foods, with steamy custards, furthering the interest. Locations where Bourdain experiences his eating is exact spots that most of the films in Hong Kong were filmed by Wong Kar Wai with Christopher Doyle. So viewers that are fimiliar with the works of the two well known film makers, where Boudain eats will aslo acquaint.

I hope you'll enjoy this video, you may have already watched this, but you can watch it again. If you are traveling, or waiting for an important business meeting, or waiting for the kids soccer practice to be over.
