Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on June 25, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Anthony Bourdain! Wherever you are dining today—be it street noodles in Hanoi or tacos from a roadside stand in Mexico—we hope you're savoring every bite with your signature wit and fearless appetite. Your journeys on "No Reservations" taught us that the best meals often come seasoned with adventure, laughter, and an occasional dash of chaos.

From daringly sampling fermented shark in Iceland to passionately defending street food vendors worldwide, you've shown us how food connects cultures—and how humor makes even questionable dishes palatable. Here's hoping your birthday feast is deliciously unpredictable and delightfully irreverent—just like you!
