Bourdain Is Back! No Reservations Season 5 Starts Monday, January 5th

If someone asked The Blot what my television guilty pleasure was the answer would be simple…Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations. The Travel Channel show has become appointment television for me over the past few years because of the eloquent way Chef Tony expresses his unique take on life. Plus, I absolutely love the way Bourdain challenges his viewers’ attitudes on food and how he explores the connection between a people’s culture and the food they create. As it turns out, our economy is not the only thing going global, so too are our taste buds.


Bourdain has helped push me to try all types of new foods I had never even heard of before and each new experience has been better than the last. I now like to think of myself as a FIT (Foodie-in-Training). Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Season 5 starts this Monday, January 5, 2009 with an episode featuring the sights and sounds of Mexico, and it’s shaping up to be the best season yet. In the coming months Bourdain will be heading to exotic locations such as Venice, Azores, Sri Lanka and Vietnam as well as local U.S. stops to cities like Washington, D.C., Chicago and New York City. To find out more about the upcoming season, check out this sneak peek video clip of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Season 5:
