So I know that Anthony Bourdain has been to many exotic places, but maybe he can stay a little closer to home by coming down to Orlando, Florida. Why Orlando? Maybe because it seems to be the complete contradiction of everything Bourdain is? Yes it's easy to find delicious, local food in a dingy hole in the wall restaurant in Southeast Asia, but can he hack it in one of the most highly commercialized cities in the United States, if not the world? It might be fun for the viewers to watch, maybe not so much for Bourdain himself, a cynic navigate through "The Happiest Place on Earth." It would be like when he went to Las Vegas but maybe a little more sadistic because it's harder to find a casino, good bar, or strippers to pass the time. I live here and I have found some good, local cuisine, but what is Orlando really made of? Can Orlando escape from the crushing force of Theme Parks (You know who I'm talking about) and prove to have its own distinctive culture?
