The Saddest Meal Anthony Bourdain Ever Ate | CONAN on TBS

You are a world renowned chef, very famous all over the world, yes, let's face it, like the Chuck of chefs. I mean, okay, do you

ever

eat fast food? I would think it would be difficult because you are so famous to

ever

yone. He knows you and you are always talking about the purity of the food and it will be a real experience. You can go get fast food and it's not okay? I think I'm saying wrong that you know a lot about the King, the clown and the colonel. and that's why it's hard for me when in the middle of the night I suddenly get like, you know, maybe I'm in the bad decision-making period of the night, let's put it that way, maybe you know I'm in a state altered consciousness and suddenly I'm hungry and I often find that that you know, fast food, macaroni and cheese, it's not even the chicken, it's a colonel, it's that one, that orange, bright orange, I'm not even sure it's cheese , it's a kind of strange glow. orange color I'll put on a hoodie and slip into the core hoping no one recognizes SL at school, so to speak.

I'll get a big jar of that stuff and I'm always like a right halfway out the door and someone says oh Anthony bour and you're oh dude and they'll take your picture and you know what the feeling is, have you ever come out like a you know you've been caught by a neighbor coming out of a porn store like a mall with an Anal Rampage under your arm yeah, I think we've all had that experience, it's so uncomfortable, yeah, yeah, the problem is that I often They catch you returning it, uh, this one doesn't work, yeah, I don't like the delay SC uh, you're not a fan of Johnny Rockets, that's a popular burger place here in Los Angeles and I think it's in some parts of the country, Johnny Rockets, I really don't I don't like Johnny Rockets, what happened, uh, yeah, I ate, look, I ate a lot of really disgusting things on my show, but nothing sells destroying my Johnny Rockets experience at the airport.

I walked in and it was like there were two managers and a cashier. three cooks there's no one else at the airport I'm alone there eh, I'm hungry, you know, I order a hamburger, they throw a cold hamburger on a bun halfway, they reach into the frying basket and grab some pre-cooked fries . They don't even dip it in the fat, they put a Lim pickle in it, they slide it, you know, they were all standing there in a row, nothing else was happening, no other customers, they kind of slid it towards me, they were all looking at me and they all we classify of standing there in silence for a second kind of sharing this moment of perfect misery none of us none of us were where we wanted to be and those things, rightly or wrongly, send me into a spiral of misery and depression that lasted 3 days, so that's how it was.

Truly the most soul destructive recent food experience. I'm not a fan, no, okay, yeah, I like that you added that at the end, so I say no, okay, so if there was a Johnny Rockington Switzerland, what would it take to get you there? Wow, I can't even. Think of anything you would know. I don't think I can get that far over a Ying man giving you a Johnny Rocket.
