Update: I received some additional information on the season premiere.

The new season of Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations premieres on January 5th at 10pm EST on the Travel Channel.  It’s one of my favorite food shows and it makes me wonder why I’m stuck in the burbs of North Jersey and not traveling the world to experience the wonderful food. Oh yeah, that’s right, I’m broke and I don’t have my own television show.  If you’re a foodie, you should be watching this.

Anthony heads to Mexico with Carlos, who took over his old position of head chef at Les Halles in New York City.  While in Mexico, Tony is treated to “the best tortillas ever,” along with food from a quaint cantina in Mexico. He explores the local culture by visiting a Lucha Libre training center, and travels down the river as the Aztecs used to and happens upon quite a creepy scene. The episode also includes Tony drinking some suspicious-looking fermented cactus sap and feasting on a homemade meal from Carlos’s family in Puebla.
