No Reservations: Into the Fire

Anthony Bourdain: Into the Fire On the Travel Channel, Monday night, March 10th, at 10 p.m. ET/PT, Anthony Bourdain goes back the kitchen of Les Halles. He’s been gone eight years and now he’s coming back to see if he still has what it takes to run his pirate ship. Since leaving Les Halles, the dining area has doubled, the kitchen is still the same size and Tony is not any younger. I’ve been waiting for this episode since he teased it back in November. This is also the season finale of No Reservations. I can’t think of a better scenario to end the season with. I’m so excited to see it. I’ve only seen him cook once on Chef’s Story and a few brief moments throughout No Reservations. It’ll be interesting to see him in a real kitchen doing his thing. This means that I will be completely off the grid tomorrow night while it’s airing. Don’t even bother trying to reach me. You will be ignored.

Restaurant: Shish Again

So, after enjoying some delicious coffee at A Fine Grind Coffeehouse. I headed over to Shish on Grand. This is my second time there. The first time I went there, I had their chicken gyro. That was alright. Today, I had their regular gyro. I have to say, it was damn tasty. It was really just the meat that made it so great. Full of flavor. Both times I was there, the services was very helpful and friendly. Also, as a friend pointed out to me, they make good use of sconces. Shish is a great choice for Mediterranean food in St Paul.
