New Jersey is considering honouring celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain with a food trail.

The famed cook, writer and host of the CNN series Parts Unknown killed himself nearly two weeks ago in a luxury hotel in France. The 61-year-old was born in New York, but grew up in the New Jersey suburb of Leonia.

Democratic New Jersey Assemblyman Paul Moriarty on Monday introduced a resolution that would require the Travel and Tourism Division to establish the Anthony Bourdain Food Trail. Bourdain visited 10 eateries in the state in a 2015 episode of CNN’s Parts Unknown.
