Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations follows cooking icon Anthony Bourdain as he journeys around the world uncovering local traditions, hidden eateries, and unforgettable food experiences. Rather than glossy tourism, Bourdain focused on real people, raw culture, and the sometimes uncomfortable truths behind food and society. From street markets to war‑torn regions, his storytelling was honest, humorous, and often profound. The show premiered on July 25, 2005 and ran for nine seasons until November 5, 2012. With episodes filmed in countries from Iceland to Vietnam, Bourdain brought viewers into places and practices rarely seen on food TV. Known for his irreverent style and deep respect for human stories, the show inspired many travel and food programs that followed.
