DVD Reviews of Anthony Bourdain - No Reservations Collection 2

DVD Review: Bourdain rocks; Travel Channel improves DVD product
Summary: 5 Stars

Another great collection. My only major beef is that the Japan (Osaka), China, South Florida, and Peru episodes are not included. But each can be purchased separately at slightly less than highway robbery prices. It seems these "collections" are not marketed to be sold as a complete season, but it's still somewhat baffling that episodes from season three (Ireland, Ghana, Namibia, and Pacific Northwest) are included in this DVD set. Still, a great collection to have for Bourdain, food, and travel fans.

DVD Review: "No Reservations" Is Unique
Summary: 5 Stars

I love "No Reservations" because Bourdain and his production crew combine fascinating places/food with great writing and a fresh approach on anything that he's experiencing.

I don't know how they sustain the dry, skeptical wit of the show while always remaining enthusiastic and appreciative of the people, culture, and food. Quite a feat!

I've seen all of Season 2 many times, but know these sets are not complete. Could anyone list what's on this one--and what is left out? S2 had some of my favorite shows and I don't want to be disappointed that they're not here.

DVD Review: Anthony rules!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have read Anthony's books first. Then I saw one of his TV shows "by accident" while switching through the channels. I wanted more. So I rent all DVDs during my last vacation in the US and watched them in a row.

Now, one year later, I wanted to see some of his shows again as I am interested in visiting some of the places he went, and as I am also a hunter for good local food and specialites, I decided to buy all his DVDs here on Amazon. And I have soooo much fun with them.

You see other views of a country, not the typical tourist paths. Food you wouldn't dare to touch or put it in your mouth - he does it for us. Great guy. Can't wait to go to Sicily and try that strange fried meat-parts hidden under a towel from these old men on the streets, too. Or the melon gelly with pistachios and dark chocolate bits.... Yummie!

These are short movies you can watch several times. They are fun, interesting, educational and like a nice trip to a foreign world in times you get "itchy feet" and wanna do at least some couchvacation....

Buy all at once, because you will like the first, and then you regret you have to pay extra postal service for the others.... ;-)

Have fun
Joey

DVD Review: Have 'No Reservations'
Summary: 4 Stars

Collection 2 is an inspiring and informative series of episodes that goes beyond the usual formula "food culture" shows. I think it is genuinely transcendent. Bourdain's personality adds much to this adventure. The series' blending of social and culinary culture with Tony Bourdain's characteristic outlook makes this fantastic entertainment worth purchase.

Bourdain's Asian adventures (India -two great episodes - and Korea) were so good it took me several minutes to come back to reality. These segments stayed with me for days. I craved Indian and Korean food for weeks. They mix culture and food culture into the best shows I've seen yet.

A big surprise was the Northwest segment. I clicked it thinking "The Northwest . . . I should just get this out of the way." I was so impressed that I want to move to Portland! This was such a great treat. The segment on Beirut brought tears to my eyes. This series facilitated the realization that food is so much more than the kitchy shows you watch about which olive oil to use or what the "cuisine" of Tuscany is like. It demonstrates how fundamental food is to our lives, our family, and who we are as a culture.

No Reservations Collection 2 is even better than the first season - which was very good. I recommend it enthusiastically. It makes me hungry for travel and food, and touched my heart with every segment!
