The best part is he said it tastes really good right after that pic and then he talked about he couldn't try in on "camera" lol

Sir_Loin 05-15-2013 05:17 PM

Probably tastes like a rice crispy bar drizzled with honey.

The Canada one was best in terms of Food Porn. I understand why he didn't present Vancouver or Toronto, and only Quebec. If you think about it, Vancouver and Toronto is just a melting pot of great international cuisines - much like every other major north american city. Quebec, on the other hand, truly has a cuisine that's unique in its own right and cannot easily be found in any other major cities. Definitely a new found respect for Quebec food for me, and nothing more.

Plus he has a hardon for Montreal and Vietnam.

BurnoutBinLaden 05-15-2013 09:13 PM

Kind of semi relevant: Are food trucks still illegal in Montreal?

Verdasco 05-15-2013 10:39 PM

you can definitely feel the warmth and cosiness when watching the Quebec episode. Such great food featured....

Bourdain also has a hard-on for Hong Kong. It's from No Reservations. I've never seen him compliment so much about a food destination before.

Don't get all flattered. I couldn't remember the last time he didn't like a place.

The only time MAYBE was in Indonesia where he tried "Dol-Dol", a caramelly sweet toffee like candy.

I've tried it in Indonesia and I think it's pretty good. Still, even on camera he dissed it politely.

I don't remember which episode it was, but it was one of the African ones from No Reservations, the tribe cooked him a meal of an animal they just caught, probably pig but I'm not 100% sure but they barely cleaned it and pretty much plain grilled it and after eating a few bites he made a face and said it tasted really bad and taste like shit lol and couldnt eat it anymore

I would die happy after a meal made by the guys from Joe Beef and Martin Picard :sweetjesus:

KingDeeCee 05-17-2013 09:27 AM

I guess that's that. Going to bring a truffle shaver, a nice fat black truffle and a container of fois gras everywhere I go.

highfive 05-17-2013 12:15 PM

Just watched the Koreatown episode. Didn't know David Choe was in it. This guy made $200 million from FB stock apparently..

No, they started last year. To be honest, they're nowhere close to what Vancouver has. Some of them are just trucks from a restaurant around town, instead of actual new establishments.

It's in the beginning stages, so I'll cut them some slack, but it really was a letdown last summer. The only good thing that was out was a truck serving duck confit poutine and pulled pork sandwiches. We'll see how it plays out this year.

I will say this though, portions here in Montreal are pretty awesome. Everyone loves to eat and knows how to love food...also, Joe Beef is one of the best places I've ever eaten. Shame about the politics in this place...

Anthony Bordain is so interesting to watch, I downloaded all his episodes, hes the man!

KingDeeCee 03-28-2014 11:54 PM

Anyone continue watching this after the first season? He had a second season a few months after and a third season is coming up in April. Just a bump for those who probably didn't know this show continued.

Season 3 starts April 13th according to wikipedia.

skyxx 03-29-2014 01:46 AM

Yup it starts with INDIA!. Quite excited about that episode. :)

fliptuner 03-29-2014 02:56 AM

Punjab, India
Las Vegas
Lyon, France
Mexico City
Mississippi Delta

sonick 03-29-2014 09:52 AM

Ah Lyon is gonna be awesome. I wonder which chef buddy he takes with him...

And Russia... ZAMIR!

Hondaracer 03-29-2014 02:58 PM

Also looking forward to the Lyon episode

Parts unknown however just doesn't do it for me like no reservations

fliptuner 04-28-2014 11:40 AM

I could feel my arteries cry as I watched the Lyon episode. All the food looked amazing and delicious.

Vegas episode was 2/10.

lowside67 04-28-2014 11:43 AM

It's funny, as I was watching the Lyon episode last night, I thought "this feels just like No Reservations". What a great episode, I will be there in September and can't wait!

Sir_Loin 04-28-2014 12:33 PM

Missed the Lyon episode last night. Gotta wait for a replay on Sat/Sun.

fliptuner 04-28-2014 07:23 PM

5pm Sun., right before the new, Mexico episode.
