Then he raised his own enormous palms to me, brought them up real close so I could see them properly; the hideous constellation of water filled blisters, angry red welts from grill marks, the old scars, the raw flesh where steam or hot fat had made the skin simply roll off.

He never flinched."  Anthony Bourdain
