Last we saw him, Anthony Bourdain was breaking down collateralised debt obligations (CDOs) on box office hit, The Big Short. Now, the 59-year-old chef-turned-TV star is talking about something closer to his heart – what he hopes to serve at Bourdain Market, his idea of an Asian food market, when it opens at Pier 57 along the Hudson River in New York come late 2017. Here are 4 dishes from our tiny red dot that made it on his list:

01: Hainanese chicken rice from Tian Tian, Maxwell Food Centre
