Comparing Anthony Bourdain to Ernest Hemingway is easier than it should be. The love of life. How it all ended.
We don't remember either of them for how it ended but how life was lived. This is the spirit behind the movement by fellow chefs José Andrés and Eric Ripert, longtime friends of Bourdain, to name June 25 as Bourdain Day.
The 1-year anniversary was earlier this month but June 25 was picked for Bourdain's birthday.
