DVD Reviews of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations - Collection 1
DVD Review: Horrible I didn't learn any inside tips on dining in Paris
Summary: 1 Stars
My husband and I were truly disappointed. We fast forwarded certain sections.
If you must watch Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, please borrow it at the library. We only watched DVD 1 on Paris and it was boring. We waited for him to give us some inside scoop on good authentic places to eat but only saw one bistro. He spent like 15 minutes talking and reexplaining a drink called Absente that can turn your stomach all green. He meets this American in a bar who explains the drink in detail to him, and then takes him to this personal bar where he has more Absente. I was bored to death!
Anthony did a big promo of his Hotel called Hotel in St-Germain des pres (we saw the big fancy room and the pool). No mention on other good hotels to stay and which neighborhoods we should visit.
We saw a big meat market where the butchers all meet very early in the morning. His jokes were not funny at all, we would see Anthony walking down the street lighting up a cigarette. The only good part was towards the end where he took us to a bakery (boulangerie) and you see the chef making baguette and croissants very early in the morning.
What I wanted to know is: how do I choose a good bistro, what is must to eat in Paris (besides the boudin).
Again, please do not waste your money to purchase this DVD. Borrow it from the library. A real disappointment.
I loved his bio though.
DVD Review: Entertaining, (sometimes) educational series on the quest for a perfect bite
Summary: 4 Stars
Anthony Bourdain is an entertaining writer and personality. I like his TV shows for his candor and ascerbic wit. His show is purely about his adventures and travels in search of good food and meeting some pretty cool people along the way. Overall, I like this collection even though it isn't the complete first season. Sometimes his whining about what a miserable job he has gets my nerves (Seriously! This guy gets paid to travel, eat and enjoy life! How can he complain???), but the overall entertainment value outweighs the irritation factor, so I still watch it. I took away one star from the rating just because he gets annoying at times and also due to the fact that this collection doesn't include the whole season.DVD Review: Five stars for Bourdain. One star for the Travel Channel DVD product.
Summary: 5 Stars
The show itself is fantastic. The DVDs? Not so much. Only two episodes per disc (4 discs total), and no "play all" feature on the DVD. Also, it's a mystery to me why the Uzbekistan episode (Season one, episode 8) was not included in the collection, and an annoyance that it needs to be purchased separately as an individual DVD if you want all of the season one episodes. Other than the DVD product annoyances, Anthony Bourdain and No Reservations are great, and I'm happy to have this in my collection.DVD Review: *****
Summary: 5 Stars
This season contains some of the best snark and humor from Anthony Bourdain. Must buy for any fan! DVD Review: fast arrival
Summary: 5 Stars
The DVD arrived before I expected and was in brand new condition as it was advertised.
