why I love Tony Bourdain, reason #whatever

Anthony Bourdain's Overrated Menu:
The cranky celebrity chef chops up dining's hottest trends


Because, as usual with Bourdain, he's smack dab on the money, funny as hell, and an unapologetic but informative asshole. What's not to love?

*snicker* dianora2 and I have been having this argument for years. But then, I'm not really a martini drinker.

For years, and I blame being in business with a bunch of guys, I only drank REAL martinis - GIN! But then I got tricked into an apple one and now I am just a girlie little girl who looks for the specialty martini menu. SO Yummy.

It used to be just Jack Daniels or wine but

I was really snotty about cocktails until a friend began making me things with fresh blueberry syrup, fresh mint, or crushed ginger. And a well-made mojito is a glorious thing.

Mojitos are eeeevil. In a good way. Remind me to tell you the story of my sister and the pitcher of mojitos...

I am just completely embarrassed about what a cocktail snot I used to be - I would dress down anyone that asked me vodka or gin martini - I martini is GIN - the other thing is a vodka martini... but how low I have fallen.
