without him and his show and production company, food tv and food media isn t what it is now. everything is shot the way the food world is through this lens. we see it through tony s lens now. and, you know, we owe a lot to him. i do personally. my personal trip to st. sebastian was basically everywhere tony had eaten. name it. i just built my travels around where he ate. this is a tough loss for you. if there s one word that comes to mind when you think of tony, what is it? courageous. very courageous. for, you know, us in the cooking world and chefs and our world to rise up to kind of the position he s in, it takes a lot of courage to get there. and he was more than happy to help you make that journey, too. absolutely. really appreciate it. thanks for sharing your memories. we will be remembering tony throughout the day.
