I've seen most of the episodes so far. Its really not that different than No Reservations, which is good I guees. The only difference is that he throws out a few more recommendations than usual, and complains about being tired more.

So interesting to watch him do a total 180 on a city. I love when grimy, bitter, old dogs can be open minded enough to learn some new tricks. That's why I love Anthony Bourdain so much. He talks a big game, but he's really open to experiences.

The NY episode went over a few spots he'd already been during No Reservations, but when you enjoy a restaurant don't you go back as well? I dig that about the show, and that Bourdain is even less apologetic in this series. Though I've only watched NY and San Fran, the latter really making me miss California.

Really looking forward to LA on the 23rd since I'll be in the area in April.
