I don't see Bourdain as an Iron Chef kind of chef though. He's more of a food/restaurant life explorer.
ETA or what bon bon said.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Yahoo Preview of tonight's Top Chef - it is essentially the first two minutes of the quickfire.

Also, Bourdain doing anything with the Food Network at this point strikes me as HIGHLY unlikely.

OK, Bourdain might lose, but they'd be bleeping him forever, and he'd be snarky at Alton, and Flay would cower before someone with a bigger, better ego than his . . .

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I say scratch the cooking part of the competition and just make it a Flay/Bourdain drinking game. Or maybe pit him against Morimoto and make them each try to cook something so weird the other one won't eat it.
Finally saw the most recent TNFNS, and so glad I knew ahead of time that JAG got kicked out in favor of Amy! I guess if it had been between Rory and JAG I just wouldn't have voted at all. They both annoy the crap out of me. Go Amy! Choose Amy!

I just had a passing thought that Bourdain needs to guest on Iron Chef America, preferably against Flay. That would be fun, especially because Flay loses frequently.
Oh my God, this would be so awesome I couldn't stand it. I think that Flay is a decent chef, but he's a stone cold asshole. It would be a tremendous entertainment value.

Bourdain vs. Flay.
I wouldn't care if it took place on a street corner and they were just talking to each other, I'd watch.
