COMMUNITY IN NEW YORK.
CBS 2'S MARC LIVERMAN SPOKE
WITH SOME CHEFS INSPIRED BY
BOURDAIN INCLUDING ONE WHO MET
HIM.
Reporter: IN EVERY CHOP,
EVERY STIR, EVERY BOARD, THE
LOVE OF FOOD UNMISTAKABLE
ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE STILL IN
CULINARY SCHOOL.
ROUGHLY A DOZEN ASPIRING CHEFS
ON THE LAST DAY OF CLASSES AT
THE CULINARY TECH CENTER ON
THE WEST SIDE A DAY OF
CELEBRATING AND ALSO
REMEMBERING A MAN WHO INSPIRED
THEM, ANTHONY BOURDAIN.
WE HAVE TO BE THE BEST THAT
WE CAN BE AS CHEFS TO CONTINUE
ON.
Reporter: JACK WAS
INTRODUCED TO THE WORLD FAMOUS
CHEF AT A RESTAURANT IN INDIA.
I TOLD HIM, I SAID THE
COOKING IS SOMETHING I LOVE
AND HE SAID, IF YOU LOVE IT,
GO RIGHT INTO IT.
HEARING THIS, WHATEVER THIS
TRAGEDY THAT HAPPENED, IT
INSPIRES EVEN MORE TO DO WHAT
I LOVE.
Reporter: A MAN WHO
CONNECTED YOU WITH THE WORLD
AND THE WORLD'S FOOD.
HE WASN'T JUST ABOUT LIKE
THE FOOD.
HE WAS ABOUT THE CULTURE AND
THE, UM, THE RITUALS,
EVERYTHING THAT WENT WITH
PREPARING THE FOOD AND THE
RESPECT FOR THE FOOD AND THE
PEOPLE MAKING IT.
THESE ASPIRING CHEFS ALSO
SAY HE HAD A WAY OF PULLING
YOU INTO HIS STORIES.
YOU COULD ALMOST TASTE AND
SMELL THE THINGS HE WAS
COOKING, EVEN IF YOU WEREN'T
THERE.
Reporter: A NEW GENERATION
THAT HOPES TO FOLLOW IN HIS
FOOTSTEPS.
EXPRESSING THEMSELVES THROUGH
THE DISHES THEY CREATE.
I REMEMBER A LINE WHERE HE
SAID, UM, CONTENT AND MEMORY
RULE.
IN EVERY MEAL YOU HAVE
THROUGHOUT YOUR LIFE.
Reporter: BOURDAIN'S LIFE
NOW A MEMORY, TOO, BUT ONE
THAT LIVES ON IN THE CHEFS'
HEARTS AND PLATES.
