Food TV Travel: Bourdain Back to Blogging

July 28, 2008 at 5:00 PM | 0 Comments

Celebrity blogging experiments usually just end up confirming how dull said celebrities are when the camera is gone and we're exposed to their own original thoughts. Cranky celeb-chef Anthony Bourdain, however, has just the right combo of snarkiness, controversy-baiting and hatred of the MSM to crossover into the online world.

Bourdian's blog to accompany his Travel Channel show "No Reservations" has been going since December 2007, although the posts have come in fits and starts. With his new season underway, Tony has amped up the blogging, churning out a new post just about every week.

The blog is basically a promo for the show--offering in-depth background on each of the episodes. Fortunately, the promotional aspect doesn't ruin Bourdain, who is as raw and uncensored as ever, waxing poetic about "Hollywood ****tards," "well-paid dochebags" and, of course, food from around the world. And for even more behind-the-scenes action, there's also the show's Crew Blog, featuring background on the filming locations from the cast and crew. This week, Bourdain's brother Chris has a post on the Uruguay episode that has us ready to pack our bags.
