Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations (2005–2012)

Better Than His CNN 'Parts Unknown' Show, An Improvement on his Food Network Show 'A Cook's Tour'

[9/10 · 12 June 2019]

I'll make this short. 'No Reservations' is and was a better show than Bourdain's final show on CNN, before his death called, 'Parts Unknown.' No Reservations doesn't have the same quality in production as 'Parts Unknown,' which was more cinematic and breathtaking, but 'No Reservations' was lighter, more comedic, still informative, but better serving audiences. It was Bourdain at his best. 'Parts Unkown' get's heavy and depressing, 'No Reservations' is the perfect balance of investigative journalism and history lesson with comedy and playfulness.
