“I looked at Anthony Bourdain’s story through the scope of my personal experiences,” 23-year-old rising star dominic.sessa says. He’s wearing a blue-and-white striped tee, paired with a faded blue baseball cap perched on top of his unruly dark brown curls; all of which exudes a very 1970s, Bourdain-like vibe. If you’ve ever glimpsed the iconic cover photo adorning most copies of ‘Kitchen Confidential’, the best-selling sex-drugs-and-haute-cuisine memoir upon which new biopic #Tony is based, you’ll know what we’re talking about.

“I thought about my views and feelings about the world,” Sessa continues, “the people around me and my mentors – and I asked: ‘where does [my life] align with his?’”

Hit the 🔗 in bio to read how Sessa blends his own story with that of the cult writer and chef to serve up a thoughtful, uplifting cinematic dish 👨‍🍳🎬🍿
