Bourdain Day: These are the New York and New Jersey restaurants Anthony Bourdain featured over the years

It’s been four years since beloved chef, writer and host Anthony Bourdain died. Friends and fans mourned the loss in 2018, posting tributes online and contributing to pop-up memorials in front of Les Halles, where Bourdain was once executive chef.
