Sources don't come much better than this: last night at the Paramount, Anthony Bourdain announced that his Travel Channel show "No Reservations" will film an Austin episode within the next 4-6 weeks.

“Cooking is a holistic process of planning, preparing, dining and sharing food.

I place food at the center of our humanity, as it nourishes not only our physical bodies but also our emotional and spiritual lives.

Food is truly a cultural phenomenon that informs our traditions and our relationship with the earth. I genuinely believe that food connects us all.”
-Eric Ripert

Over the holiday weekend, Austin-based filmmaker Christian Remde debuted a new documentary on Vimeo.

The piece is titled Farm To Trailer, and it focuses on the origin story of The Odd Duck food trailer on South Lamar, the locally-sourced newcomer that shot to fame after an appearance on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations.
