Why Anthony Bourdain hated brunch (NPR+)

With “Tony,” a new biopic about chef and TV personality Anthony Bourdain, coming out in theaters this week, we’re looking back to Bourdain’s only Fresh Air interview from 2016. Bourdain spoke to Dave Davies about how he fell in love with working in restaurants, about eating experiences in Borneo and Vietnam that really stuck with him, and why chefs really hate brunch. | Listen to 50 years of Fresh Air's archives at FreshAirArchive.org. | To access bonus episodes and sponsor-free listening and to support public radio, become a NPR+ supporter at plus.npr.org See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.
