LOL Are you're a closet TV cooking show fan?
I'm unfamiliar with Gary Rhodes but he looks interesting
online
Hard to judge since never eaten ANY of their food before. I'm
partial to "western" cuisine. Preference will be based purely on
personality and familiarity...
I read both of Anthony Bourdain's books, seen him in person at Kino
and watched him on TV... and he is absolutely funny, charming and
witty 
I'm sure his cooking is good too
