I'll never forget the beauty Anthony found in Beirut's messiness. I miss his edified insights into world cultures and how he'd weave them into his food finds. There will never be anyone like him.Beirutistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17044182445447487566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678168401515945448.post-5802463719271411472021-03-07T01:30:55.505+02:002021-03-07T01:30:55.505+02:00Watching today, march, 2021, Bourdain's second...Watching today, march, 2021, Bourdain's second visit to Beirut, was something magical since he is no longer with us and knowing that Beirut is rising again after the sad explosion.

I'm rewatching it now and I feel more convinced that this episode was just a continuation of his getting-to-know Beirut. <br /><br />Like you said, I guess all we can say is "thanks" for having such an attachment and continually trying to tell our story as best he can.Farrah Berrouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17461534953399705787noreply@blogger.com
