CNN made the decision to pull the two episodes of Parts Unknown that Asia Argento was featured in, which include the “Rome” installment from Season 8, and the Season 11’s “Hong Kong” episode.
And it was in the “Hong Kong” installment, which was directed by Argento, that Bourdain first spoke of their relationship on the culinary series.
Both episodes were among the celebrity chef’s favorites, as well.
Anthony Bourdain’s trip to Rome marked the first time he met his future girlfriend, who served as his tour guide through the non-tourist sections of the country’s southern region.
