During Thanksgiving Break I saw a show on the Travel Channel call "No Reservations" Anthony Bourdain. In this episode Anthony takes his adventure to US and Mexico border. At the beginning of the show he starts from New York City in a well known restaurant, he explains how good the food is, how well prepared it is and who makes it. In this restaurant the chefs are of Mexican Nationalities, who did preparation and cooking of the food. The food that was prepared was NOT Mexican food but food for fine dining. Bourdain becomes curious about these Mexicans how they became well trained chefs, so he travels south to the US and Mexico border starting in Del Rio, Texas. In Del Rio, Texas a border town he finds it interesting how people from US/Mexico share their cultural from preparation of food to speaking the languages. Then he crosses the border to Mexico...Acuna. He discover that most food in Mexico are just not nacho, taco but more authentic. He crosses back to the US to Laredo, Texas, he find a Mexican chef that makes sushi in a Japanese restaurant.... a Japanese restaurant owned by a Chinese lady and the chefs are Mexicans who make Japanese food? I found it interesting because of the diversity of different cultures. WHO PREPARES YOUR FOOD?
