Part 2: Best of Bourdain in North America: The Rust Belt

So, oddly enough, it wasn't San Francisco or even New Orleans, which grabbed the top spot for best Bourdain show in North America. Instead, Anthony's adventures to Detroit, Baltimore and Buffalo with his buddy Zamir was our favorite No Reservations episode in North America. Why? Three reasons.


1. Snoop from the Wire. Tony and Felicia "Snoop" Pearson from HBO's best show ever, "The Wire", eat at Mo's Seafood in Baltimore. Snoop is just as gritty and compelling as her character on HBO was, but you kind of get the impression she's playing Tony a bit as well. Regardless, this gal has definitely lived a rough life. While Mo's Seafood does not look particularly appetizing, it feels real, and a highlight of the show is when Tony buys the patrons, who look like extras from the Cher classic movie, "Mask", an electric blue cocktail, called the "Obama". Which is actually kind of hysterical.
