The tag line on my blog is a quote from Julia Child. She said “People who love to eat are always the best people”. Its a simple line. It says to me that essentially we are all the same. We eat. When we share a meal, break bread together we share each other.

I think this is what Anthony Bourdain and his love of food was about: bringing us together and laying our humanity out on the table…to share…our food and ourselves. Anthony Bourdain, you are one of the best people and because of you I have been inspired.
Upon hearing the news of Anthony’s death this morning I realized my last blog post was The Roasted Marrow Bones that Anthony Bourdain always said was his favorite pick for his dying meal. So I think it’s fitting to re-post it. One can hope he got his meal.

Here’s the post from April 2018:
I wrote in a post awhile back (a year ago I think) about watching Anthony Bourdain and salivating as I watched him eat his favorite (for his dying last meal) roasted marrow bones. I had to make it for myself. I just had to. Couldn’t get it out of my mind, which is usually how I get started on a new dish. I ruminate about it until it almost becomes obsession.
So I did…make it that is. It was for my and a buddy’s birthday. Dinner party for 6. I served it as a first course in my version of a Turf n Surf menu that included pan seared scallops with a lime buerre blanc sauce as a second course and steamed dungeoness crab as a final course.
I used beef marrow bones instead of veal (Anthony’s favorite) because one (or maybe more) of my guests were adverse to eating veal. I accompanied the dish with garlic and butter sauteed escargot. It was soooo good…I forgot to take pictures(!) but my fellow birthday friend took some leftovers home and managed to get a pic of a family member finishing it off. I dedicate this post to Smithy (you know who you are Buddy):
I made it again a few weeks ago for the purpose of this post. No escargot and no, Smithy didn’t get any bones this time. I hope he still loves me.
