Anthony Bourdain: Les Halles Episode

Phenomenal season finale of Bourdain's No Reservations. Premise - he gets irritated by all the food bloggers talking shite (heh) about his lack of cooking and skills. So...he decides to go back to Les Halles and put in a full breakfast, lunch, and dinner shift as the saute guy. An amazing and well detailed look at the day in the life of a restaurant. And, a great look at the normally confident Bourdain get buried - orders being sent back, chef telling him to do redo things. I would 100% try to catch this if you can...best cooking episode I've seen maybe ever.

Btw - Bourdain challenged his buddy Eric Ripert from Le Bernardin to join him...and he does working the grill station.
