Ham to the face!

Except when he's out with Mancow on the Chicago episode.

In the past, Bourdain has also famously attacked mac 'n' cheese maker Rachael Ray, whom he didn't spare in this rant, either.

No word yet on what Deen has to say about her chef-turned-terrorist status, but no question this is a serious food fight.

Thank you Mr. Bourdain. The world needs to be made aware of the evil that is Paula Deen.

Why is it ok for gay dudes to mercilessly attack chicks in this way? Reminds me of Andrew Sullivan and his obsessive Hillary-n-Palin hate.

I realize Bourdain probably has nothing to do with the programming on Travel, but it seems like his show is always preceded by a repeat of this:



Adam Richman slowly killing himself as people cheer him on.

They switched the format of the show now. Richman just hosts and mentors someone else. I think they are giving his cholestrol a break.

Paula Deen and Anthony Bourdain are at war

I apologize in advance that this post will not feature a video of Deen and Bourdain wrestling to the death in a big-ass vat of butter. Nope, all that happened is that Anthony Bourdain called Paula Deen “the worst, most dangerous person in America … plus, her food sucks” in an interview for TV Guide. The No Reservations star also slammed Deen’s fellow Food Network chefs Rachael Ray (“Does she even cook anymore?”), Sandra Lee (“I hate her works on this planet, but she is not someone to be dismissed, clearly.”), and Guy Fieri (“I look at Guy and I just think, ‘Jesus, I’m glad that’s not me’”). how did this one get missed?
First of all, can we just revel for a second in “I hate her works on this planet?” Thank you. Seriously, who knows how many other galaxies Sandra Lee is ‘botting out on right now.

Deen has fired back with a viscous stream of cholesterol and words!
Her beef with Bourdain? He’s moody and not charitable enough. “My good friends Rachael, Guy and Sandra are the most generous charitable folks I know,” Deen told Page Six today. “They give so much of their time and money to help the food deprived, sick children and abandoned animals. I have no idea what Anthony has done to contribute besides being irritable.”

Deen went on to explain the way the world works: “”You know, not everybody can afford to pay $58 for prime rib or $650 for a bottle of wine,” she said. “My friends and I cook for regular families who worry about feeding their kids and paying the bills.”

Whatever, you guys. It’s not about who’s the better person. We’re talking apples vs. oranges here, or sour grapes vs. a $650 bottle of wine. Can you please just smear a cream cheese pound cake stuffed with steak au poivre all over each other’s faces and then casually make up? Or at least settle this feud on camera… in the Iron Chef America kitchen. I’ll judge. Now go.

That Chicago episode was such a dissapointment

While I like the Three Little Pigs (not enough to have it more than once per year), I would have probably dropped Silver Palm and instead put in Cemitas Puebla. I didn't appreciate Mancow's presence on the show, either. What else would you have changed?

I sure wouldn't have included Burt's Pizza in Morton Grove, which I think is tasty but garners attention only because a group of foodies on lthforum.com romanticize Burt's status as an obscure and unappreciated pizza genius. In truth, his pies aren't as good as the more popular and more widely available Lou Malnati's.

I'm not sure I would've even included Pizza in the show. To me, omitting something like Maxwell St. Market was a huge oversight. The Market really captures some interesting aspects of the city's culture and helps illustrate that its dynamism begins with immigrant culture.....Speaking of which, some of the Polish delis on Milwaukee Avenue also should have been part of the show.
