Anthony Bourdain was joined by Eric Ripert in a UCSB Arts and Lectures Event. Anthony warmed up the crowd with amusing questions and answers. He started with stating that he would rather go to Justin Bieber concert than have Sandra Lee read him bedtime stories. He went on to explain that if someone were to drop a Nuclear bomb New York, she’ll would be the one crawling out with a knife between her teeth... He later described his tactics for keeping his daughter away from McDonald's. He said that he thought about taking the head off her favorite Barbie, covering it in chocolate, wrapping it in a McDonald’s wrapper, and leaving it on the table for his daughter to find. Eventually, he said, that he chose the more ‘tactful’ route. He would not-so-subtly hint about Ronald McDonald having to do with the ‘mysterious’ disappearances of many children.
