The memorial outside of Anthony Bourdain’s old restaurant Brasserie Les Halles.
A couple excerpts in no particular order:
“I work in food because of you. Sometimes I think I live in New York because of you”
“Burgers on brioche buns totally suck! Thank you!”
“Anthony, thanks for showing & visiting Armenia on Parts Unknown - letting the world know about the Armenian Genocide”
“You will be missed- A vegan”
“You’ve left an impression on me and many men… and for a man, esp. a white man, exceptional and graceful in all your interactions with people”
“When I was 14 I thought I was going to be a journalist or a writer, then I was given a copy of Kitchen Confidential. It changed my life. 20 years later I’m a CHEF because of YOU.”
“People say you should never meet you heroes: the fear of rejection, the fear of being let down, fear that they will not live up to your super high expectations. I mean that’s what makes them your heroes right? … I met chef twice… he looked over, tipped his glass at me and continued on, we drank in silence but i was never more comfortable ”
“ I can’t believe its not butter… I fucking can.”- I worked for him, best soul in food
“you made me COOK… and I’m a single New Yorker”
“I am a bubbly, happy vegetarian you would have hated me. But I loved you like we all did. You saw the world with compassion masked in distain”
