Thrilled because Bourdain is sharp, funny, and brutally honest. Terrified because there was a local PR agency involved.

Now I'm a big Anthony Bourdain fan. Speaking of which, I need to make sure the DVR is being nice and recording it. We've had nothing but trouble with it since Verizon updated their box's firmware.

I tended to agree with him until I started eating there.
