A wonderful episode, very important. AB has done a great service. I grew up in a border area and anyone who did knows that draconian 'keep em out' measures destroy the quality of life for the people who live there and make things ugly and difficult.
Gran trabajo...Personalmente creo que México es mucho más que esto, no solo inmigrantes o tamales, la variedad de comida por ejemplo, no se limita a los tacos... y no toda la gente deseamos vivir en Estados Unidos, por la razón que sea.
see. this is how people can live in harmony if we stop with the beaurocracy and the xenophobia by the older generations. we can all coexist and live in harmony. in the end, were not all that different. we all just want to have homes and provide for our families and this is true to not just immigrants of mexico, but to all that come here looking for the ameican dream.
@chadsexinton it's called Tortillera. My brother in law (who's white) gave my mom one for her birthday. we're mexican and when we moved to the new house she lost her old one.
you must be a great bitch when you show up in the gay bay you're mouth wide open looking for every dick you can find you fucking low life fucking idiot
of course home cooked meals are better; in a restaurant everything is rushed, a latin dish, a proper one, takes a solid hour to prepare. Worth the wait though.
no way you gonna eat food like that, in a "career woman" culture.
maybe I should go back to latin america and become a warlord. Unite Mexico and Central America as far as nicaragua, kill off the upper classes, rule with an iron fist, execute all drug dealers....
Anthony did a good job, contrasting the position of both countries and their people, letting clear out with facts all the prejudices around mexicans, and how fucking tough they work in us building houses, in harvest, cooking, cleaning gosh! We are so hard working humans.
you see most of the mexicans and hispanics that come to the u.s.a have stories like this. But the news depicts them as criminals bottom feeders and dirty people.
well if they didnt they wouldnt get all the funding they need for the dea and border patrol they must put fear into us and think that were all going to die if some one get across the boarder and its sad and this country and the people running it make me sick
I'm an immigrant son who's mom is from Mexico and I like the statement you made about the news depecting them as criminal is sicking. If I were them. I would want to be here also, I,m glad I'm an American,but I can't forget my roots...
first "NO RESERVATIONS" episode i watched was of Tony going to LA eating hot dogs and what-not... first impression was that he was a total asshole; a typical new yorker.
But i gotta say.... that's since changed, (after watching more and more international episodes). The man has really got a great thing going with his show.... kudos to him
Tony has a NY style swagger, a defense mechanism. He's may be bit gruff on the outside, but he has a big heart. With real people, real food, he's a humble, charming, exuding warmth, feeling at home, as you can see in the last 15 minutes it was all about sweet Alfredo.
I really dont see Tony as a egotistical asshole (kenwritez) but I could see how some might. I think hes doing all of us a favor by showing us things that we might not understand or may not have the pleasure of seeing. plus hes has such a way with words that Hes my Hero! lol
viva la raza, muy buen gesto de tony, este episodio especialmente me gusto mucho por todo lo que representa para muchos de nosotros que hemos estado o tenemos gente alla que como Alfredo se parte la madre para mantener aca un sueño o a una familia que no podra ver en años o decadas.
It's easy for people to see Bourdain as an egotistical asshole, and he even admits he is, but the humanity he demonstrates in the 5th episode with his trip to Alfredo's parents' house colors him as human as the rest of us. Good job, AB.
