Pemergian chef selebriti terkenal antarabangsa, Anthony Bourdin pada Jumaat lalu telah mengejutkan semua peminatnya di seluruh dunia.

Lebih mengejutkan, Anthony Bourdin dipercayai mati akibat membunuh diri.

Chef tersohor Malaysia, Datuk Chef Wan turut bersedih dengan kematian Anthony serta sempat mengimbau kenangan bersama ketika menjadi tetamu dalam program No Reservation.

Menerusi akaun Instagram (IG) peribadi Chef Wan memberitahu betapa susahnya untuk membuat Anthony ketawa kerana kebiasaanya chef di sana berperwatakan serius sahaja.

Pun begitu, Chef Wan berkata dia terharu apabila mendiang dalam satu temu bual ketika melancarkan programnya di New York menamakannya sebagai chef perlu ditemui sekiranya ke Asia.

Chef Wan menggap pujian itu sebagai satu penghormatan buat dirinya dan akan sentiasa mengenang Anthony sebagai antara individu penting yang pernah hadir dalam hidupnya.

So sad to hear this new of u leaving us so soon Anthony.? Memories of u filming with me as your guest chef on No Reservation came flooding back to me. I remembered how hard i worked to make u laugh at the set as u were seen to me as a typical serious American TV chef! In the end u melt down to me and event complimented me on one of your TV interview when u launch your serie in New York that u had said " If there anyone that u met on this trip in Asia larger then life is non other than CW from Malaysia. He practically knocked me dead. The guy speak like a bullet train with all fact on his palm delivering what we need to know fo precise about his passion for his Malaysian heritage cusine!" When i saw that i laughed as in the begining u were very reserved and not open to me. When we finished taping i also recieved the same sms from your Director Chris Collin saying to me " Thank You Chef Wan for being such a fabulous guest on our show.I told Anthony last night that u practically knocked him dead and that obviously u have been around on telly for sometime and u were just fabulous. Amthony Bourdain cracked up and said to me he is something to film with". Now all that memories can only bring tears to my eyes. Yes i have been so blessed to have cross path with u in this beautiful life. Thank you for showing your beautiful talent to this culinary world. We loved and salute u. Adios my friend R.I.P till we meet again.????
