Review of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations

Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations is a rare show that combines both traveling and restaurants which happen to be two of my favorite things. This travel channel show goes all over the map literally judging by the locations listed here. He was recently in Chicago. Since Bourdain is bred New Yorker but raised in urban Jersey, he doesn't put Chicago down at all. He always praises locations like Chicago. For example, he goes to China and claims that he could spend an eternity trying to show the various, unique cooking styles of the Chinese. He was quite complimentary and enjoyed his visit in China just as he does everywhere. He meets with friends and goes to the off the tourist track to find the restaurants where there are usually local charms. You won't find them to have valet parking or formal attire. Anthony shows the culture and the cuisine in his travels whether it's Jersey, New York, Chicago, China, or elsewhere. I have enjoyed watching him and his friends chow down on a variety of foods.
