Bourdain Leaves the Travel Channel for HBO and PBS and CNN and ABC

Here's the trailor for a new show premiering on PBS November 9th called The Mind of a Chef.  Narrated by Anthony Bourdain, season one "Goes inside the kitchen, the world, and the mind of chef David Chang."  We already knew about Chang's talent in the kitchen, but it turns out the guy can seriously swing a golf club (:41).  Anthony Bourdain and Zero Point Zero Productions, the same crew that produced No Reservations, take the production credits.  Rene Redzepi, Wylie Dufresne, and Ferran Adria all make appearances in season one.

Bourdain's involvement with the PBS show is another notch on his food media belt.  The Mind of a Chef airs the same month as the second, and last, of Bourdain's The Layover series on the Travel Channel.  There's The Taste, an the elimination Chopped-meets-The Next-Food-Network-Star-type show Bourdain is doing on ABC with Nigella Lawson, and in early 2013, CNN will get a Sunday night primetime show serving as a "signature showcase for the network’s coverage of food and travel" via Bourdain and Zero Point Zero.  Bourdain's also a contributing writing for the HBO hit series Treme.  If food's the new rock, food TV's the new roll.
