This review is from: Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Season 1 - Episode 11: Japan (DVD)

I searched for a long time to find this "No Reservations" episode. The Discovery Channel and Travel Channel websites do not have this episode for sale. The Anthony Bourdain DVD Collections do not have this episode either. Thank you Amazon for offering this for sale.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bourdain is the Best, February 22, 2007

This review is from: Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Season 1 - Episode 11: Japan (DVD)

Bourdain is the best host out there. This is the only travel show I watch because it is not typical. He is witty, intelligent and funny. He tries to connect to the people he is meeting not just show the most popular spots.

If you like this read any of his books

This review is from: Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Season 1 - Episode 11: Japan (DVD)

The Japan episode was the first one I saw on television while travelling on business. I could not remeber the name of the show at the time, and spent several hours searching the net before I found the info including broadcast schedule and DVD's for sale.

We went of a 3 week trip to Japan in April 2009 and spent a couple of days in Osaka with some Japanese friends. Sadly, the Kuidaore restaurant had closed and the clown was gone, but we did get our picture taken in front of kanidoraku! We had to make our own version of kuidaore (you have to see the episode to understand unless you speak Japanese) with a friend who owned a bar. I, like Tony vowed to never EVER do karioke, but after several hours of self indulgent kuidaore, found the microphone in hand and delivered a rousing rendition of the Star Spangled Banner that brought the house down.

I love Tony's style and the locations for the shoots. Being of asian background, I really enjoy seeing all the asian episodes and share Tony's affinity for the culture and of course the food!!

I recommend this and any of Tony's DVD's if you are a lover of life, people, and great food!
