What an eloquent tribute to Anthony B...Hello Peech,<br />What an eloquent tribute to Anthony Bourdain. I was beginning to wonder why no food bloggers in HK honored him since he had changed many of our views on food and for that matter our lives for the better. I am very saddened by his death and am selfishly angry that Anthony left all of us behind with a deep void. I too felt like I have lost a dear friend. <br />I read Kitchen Confidential years ago and was struck by how well he wrote. I read his other novels and was awed by his writing talent. I love his narratives on his television programs. He was affirming, reflective, poetic and deeply human. His voice was calm and comforting, there was so much empathy and goodness in the world. A jiu jitsu blue belt holder, fit and handsome, Anthony seemed to have it all. Even President Obama wanted to be on his program while in Vietnam. <br />The world has lost a brilliant and good human people who, through food, brought people together, who celebrated diversity and unity. What a great loss to humanity, he will be VERY sorely missed. <br />May he rest in peace.<br />SophiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
