June 08, 2018 by soukeltayeb@anthonybourdain first came to #Lebanon in 2006, right before the war exploded, and true to his word, he came back in 2010 to shoot an episode for his show. Souk El Tayeb and Tawlet had the honor of hosting him. We are deeply saddened by the news of his death. "If I was surprised, it was at what @kamalmouzawak is doing at Souk El Tayeb, bringing cooks from different social, political, and regional, sectors. Always sounds like the beginning of something good." "vibrant, exciting, a magnet for creative people. Beirut is always better than I expected. The environment, the mentality of Beirutis is far more lively and exciting than one has any right to expect for a place considering what it's been through" You can read more here: http://edition.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/07/26/anthony.bourdain.in.beirut/index.html
