The Blot is really excited for tonight’s episode of No Reservations because it features Tony visiting one of my all time favorite cities, Chicago. It’s more than a little surprising that Bourdain has never featured Chicago in an episode of No Reservations before considering the city’s distinctive personality and amazing food. While in Chicago Bourdain does it all, including eating at the famous L20 and stopping in for a slice of pie (that’s pizza to the rest of us) at a little joint named Burt’s Place. You can find out more about Tony’s visit to Burt’s Place by watching the video clip from tonight’s episode below:
During his trip to the Windy City Bourdain also meets with avant-garde chef Homaro Cantu and local shock jock Mancow Muller, as well as dines on local delicacies such as deep-dish pizza, hot dogs and seafood from the Calumet River. Chef Tony even makes an appearance at a backyard BBQ for homemade specialties like sausage, creamed corn and beans. I recommend eating a little something before watching tonight’s episode or you might come down with a serious case of the munchies.
Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations airs every Monday at 10/9c on the Travel Channel.
