See, I would think that of all the celebrity chef personalities out there Bourdain would rub more people the wrong way.

Since he certainly comes off as a pompous douchenozzle at times.*

*i still enjoy his shows despite this.

He is hypocritical in that his bashes Paula Deen because she samples unhealthy food - amoxy Feb 19, 18:01
From his new show (The Taste), Mularky(sp?) is worse. - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 19, 17:35 1
- He's like a caricature of a boarding school bully. -- nm - Stephen Feb 19, 17:53
He's snarkily sexy. (IMHO) the kinda guy you want to hang out with 'cause you know it w - JenBro Feb 19, 17:28
On The Taste, Ludo is utterly unbearable. -- nm - David Feb 19, 17:27 5
- He's not even close to Mularky (spoiler from before tonight) - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 19, 17:44 2
  - I'm just the opposite. I think Mularkey, while obnoxious, is bearable. Ludo is not. - David Feb 19, 17:48 1
    - PS: Mularkey was a Top Chef contestant during season 3. -- nm - David Feb 19, 17:49
- pretty much on anything i've seen him on -- nm - prayformojo Feb 19, 17:29
- Not to mention un-understandable. - Stephen Feb 19, 17:29
i don't particularly dislike him, but just cannot understand his appeal - prayformojo Feb 19, 17:23 11
- He's funny and really down to Earth. -- nm - David Feb 19, 17:28 6
  - and he totally has a good sense of humor about himself, which often saves him. (I don't mind Ludo, though - he and Marlarkey - b. Feb 19, 17:32 3
    - So far, I'm not digging the show. It feels awkward and unfocused. Is this the same concept/design as The Voice? - David Feb 19, 17:37 2
      - I think it's very similar to The Voice, but I haven't watched hardly any of that. - the wrong element, bad guy Feb 19, 17:51
      - Agreed. Especially evident in the closing. - Stephen Feb 19, 17:50
  - I don't know that I'd ever use down to earth to describe Bourdain. -- nm - Stephen Feb 19, 17:30 1
    - I would. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 17:32
- We see the awesome. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 17:25 3
  - Let me put it like this. I *hate* food. But I enjoyed watching his show. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 17:25 2
    - do you also hate oxygen? -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 17:26 1
      - No, love it. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 17:26
