I don’t do sprouts. And I definitely don’t do 'the industry'." In this famously cynical episode of A Cook’s Tour (Season 1, Episode 17), a young, skeptical Anthony Bourdain lands in Los Angeles with one goal: to find the "Heart of Darkness" in a city obsessed with the light. Avoiding the glitz of Hollywood and the "plastic" energy of the beach, Tony descends into the grit and the grease of the real LA. From standing in line for a legendary chili dog at Pink’s to disappearing into the smoky, late-night allure of Koreatown for authentic K-BBQ, this is Bourdain trying to find the soul of a city he’s prepared to hate. #AnthonyBourdain #ACooksTour #LosAngeles #Koreatown #PinksHotDogs #LAFood #TravelDocumentary #Bourdain #FoodHistory #KBBQ JLZI8DtC3CL 4fgTtdkTP8I GS72n4dxWic Jq8nhnaojkv 0Kgx7nEoTU7 6hH22pqg2hb 0KL7TxC2MHO
