I was recently in Lebanon, and ate at a restaurant called Le Chef in Beirut because it had been a favourite of Anthony Bourdain. When we were there, we found out it had been heavily damaged in the Beirut blast (August 2020), and that Russell Crowe had donated $5000 on behalf of Anthony Bourdain to help restore the restaurant. The restaurant had a poster up thanking him since the money was a large portion of what they had needed (Lebanon's currency has tanked, so $5000 USD is quite a lot there).
