Anthony Bourdain has been all over the map for his show No Reservations. Here he talks for a few minutes to ProjectExplorer.org's Good Global Citizen project about how this has changed his perspective. "The more you travel, the less you realize you know...When you travel it changes the definitions of words that you thought you understood. You thought you knew what the word "work" meant. You didn't know if you're from the West until you've seen a rice farming community, for instance." More Anthony, after the jump....

Blogger David Lay points out that Cleveland's legendary Sausage Shoppe will celebrate its 70th year 71st year tomorrow and highlights a video segment from the Cleveland episode of No Reservations.

Photograph courtesy of Kathryn Yu's Flickr photostream Well, it's not like Serious Eats' Robyn Lee was a talking head on No Reservations, but you do see the back of her head on the show. FoSE Kathryn Yu captured the moment. There's Robyn in the background having lunch at Momofuku Ssam Bar. Update: Highmtn pointed out this photo in Robyn's Flickr stream. Thanks! Strangely appropriate, as the episode had to do with food porn, which Robyn excels at. Bourdain talks about food porn in this blog post and in this video with David Chang, where Bourdain says: It's anti-food in a sense. This is the thing with the food nerds—they're your most loyal followers. They spread the gospel, for sure,...

This week's episode of No Reservations took place in Chicago, and except for Anthony Bourdain's jab against Chicagoans—where he said something like, “These are not small people”—it was one of the better chronicles of the Windy City’s tasty offerings. Local super-journalist and cook Louisa Chu served as Bourdain’s fixer and she definitely knows her stuff. Reportedly, while they were here, Anthony and his crew ate at the Ramova Grill in Bridgeport, but no mention of Chicago’s supreme diner made the air. It should have. If you loved the segment on the die-hard irascible Burt Katz and his pizza at Burt’s Place, you would have loved a segment on the Ramova. Founded in 1929, it’s the diner ideal—a place Edward Hopper,...
