In an extensive post-electioninterview with Eater, TV personality and renowned chef Anthony Bourdain vowed to boycott Donald Trump’s Washington D.C. hotel restaurant, and said he does not see evidence that America is a less racist country than it was in the 1960s.
“I will never eat in his restaurant,” the Parts Unknown host said when asked about chef Alessandro Borgognone bringing a new sushi restaurant, Nakazama, to the new Trump International Hotel in the nation’s capital. “I have utter contempt for him, utter and complete contempt.”
Bourdain said the chef doing business with Trump is “not helpful.”
“I’m not asking you to start putting up barricades now, but when they come and ask you, ‘Are you with us?’ You do have an option,” he said before comparing chefs working with Trump to Germans becoming Nazi soldiers. “You can say ‘No thanks, guys. I don’t look good in a brown shirt. Makes me look a little, I don’t know, not great. It’s not slimming.’”

ReplyDeleteHahahaha Who cares where the depressed snob eats.
ReplyDeleteIs this a story about Gertie or Anthony? Not much excitement about either.
ReplyDeleteThis guy...Anthony Boredrain...is so irrelevant! A legend only in his own mind
ReplyDeleteGo back to france you pos.
ReplyDeleteWhy do celebrities (of any desription) involve themselves with politics? It's so easy to simply avoid,but for reasons unknown (no pun intended)they always seem to step in it.
ReplyDelete"Isnt he a x junkie ?"
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely not! He is a continuous junkie.
Who cares.. why are the news people giving these jerks any recognition .. if we had acted like this when Obama was elected we would have been chastised .. but now because the whiney babies didn't get there way it's okay for them to disrespect our president elect ? Get over it you cry babies the majority has spoken .. now be respectful and deal with it like we did when Obama got elected
ReplyDelete6:59 Great question. Please ask Donald Trump that!
ReplyDeleteNo more Boredrain for us. We have utter contempt for him, utter and complete contempt.
ReplyDeleteAll the nasty and dirty food he eats all over the world and have the nerve to be this disrespectful. Boredrain, go back to eating rats, dogs and cats. Your show is boring as hell. And, your stomach probably can't take eating civilized food, anyway.
ReplyDeleteHe says he'll boycott Trump-owned restaurants, not the dumpsters behind those restaurants.
ReplyDeleteWho is Bourdain ? Who cares and why is his opinion even news worthy? He like most left wing idiots are now irrelevant
ReplyDeleteAMEN TO 8:59!
ReplyDeleteThe only show I watched on CNN. His roots are from Massachusetts, a bastion of liberalism. Based on his comments, I will also stop watching him. Now there is absolutely no reason what so ever to watch CNN!
ReplyDeleteCommunist news network, or Clinton News Network!
7:15 & 10:10 exactly ..i have same thoughts

ReplyDeleteAnthony the bug eater.
Saw a portion of his show once; that was enough. He's definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Nobody cares for his opinion or where he would try to get a reservation.
