I know I know the TL truck is too salty

Taceaux Loceaux is a top 20 food truck in the country??

that is fricking comical. and why would he go to Kingpin? oh that's right .. he's gotta let us know how "street" he is and that he smokes cigarettes. o/u on how many F-bombs he drops this episode? i'll set it at 7.


all that being said .. I'll watch.

So how did everybody get along in this thread?

TL;DR

Was everybody all like, "that sucks!"

"No it doesn't!"

"frick you!"

"No, frick you!"

"You're uppidy!"

"lulz, you suck."

"I'm from New Orleans, frick you!"

I watched the episode last night. Say what you want about Bourdain but he really appreciates New Orleans and its culture. In his No Reservation NOLA and Cajun Country episodes, he really respects, appreciates and puts these areas in a good light. He is one of the few "culture" shows and does it well. No Reservations and The Layover are really more than a food show.

This episode really made me really miss Nola. It's such a unique place. Bourdain and others on this show are right to say Katrina changed Nola and that it is rebuilding better than it was. People are flocking to the city to get in on they unique vibe of the City.

I thought Bourdain did a good job with the episode and has done well by LA in all his visits. I cant tell you how many people asked me about LA cuisine after the No Reservations - Cajun Country episode but it was a lot. Several have since visited LA or have it on their to-do list.

This episode highlights why I laugh every time someone bashes New Orleans cuisine for being one dimensional and lacking variety. A world-class, wealthy chef of nationally renowned places drives across the river to go eat and highlight a pho restaurant.

I thought it was funny when he(Bourdain)said he was pulling for the Saints to go to the Super Bowl. I wonder how the New Yorkers feel about that.

Pretty good show without trying to overdo everything like every other program does.

It will re-air

Thought it was fantastic. They hit some great spots. Still laughing about the Dead line.
