The structure of the show really is what keeps me interested. Establishing what he enjoys and wants out of the food and that’s how he decides what’s best for HIM. Makes the show a lot more personal instead of a face just talking about how good the food is. It’s like following the host on his journey to pick his favorite places that serve his favorite food.

These shows are great. I've never even heard of a Chicago hot dog or a breakfast taco before, so it's really interesting. Hopefully you make more of these with tasty looking American treats.
Lol you didn't get a release form at the mystery joint because they knew they were turning out crappy food and didn't want to get hate from the internet. I think you need to change the way your doing business if your not willing to be featured by a company as big as Bon Appétit.

My friends, we dont go to el primo (which you are correct in guessing) for breakfast tacos. Its all about the meat. That being said, el primo is still not the best albeit very good, however it gained lots of notoriety from Bourdain's No Reservations. They have plenty of experience with shows asking them to be featured and I am sure they ahve their own reasons for not being cool with it all the time.
@patrickgoetz
6 жыл бұрын
In addition to the mystery joint there was one place that didn't even get into the video; likely because they wouldn't allow it; I wonder what place that was? I'm guessing Torchy's? Otherwise, I'm not sure how he would have overlooked Torchy's.
@godaistudios

Torchy's is on the written article, so you are correct on your answer there. I would have liked to hear his overview of it though - not because I've been there, but because I enjoy his descriptions. Having a culinary arts background myself, I like how he breaks it down.

When I first saw this series I rolled my eyes at watching a dude eat, but Alex is legit a good host, seems to stay non biased and so far I’ve watched him eat a lot of food. Nice job.
These shows hit a lot of marks, local, historical and inside knowledge, humour, honest reviews,...more please.
Well done Alex. This is one of the best review shows I've seen in a while. Shout out to editing and cameraman.
I really enjoy his honesty. No sugar coating on any of the tacos.
I've actually been waiting for this for a while now! Like I'm actually more excited for this episode than I probably should be! I just loved the previous ones!
I was born and raised in this area but left Texas in my early 20s. I can’t tell you how much I miss good breakfast tacos! 😭
I’m a native Texan and currently stationed overseas. I might be thousands of miles away but I come here to watch videos of food from my beloved Lone Star State, and I never leave disappointed. God Bless Texas, it’s Texans, and our cherished chow. :)

Sometimes in the US it is considered pretentious to dote too thoroughly on foreign words. Considering how much of English is borrowed from other languages and how many cuisines and cultures are represented in the US, it can be difficult to know what to casually anglify and what to give your best effort. My favorite example is hors d’oeuvres. We have borrowed this term from French, which we pronounce “or-dervs”, when the real pronunciation is “or-duvruh” (including vowel sounds that don’t exist in English). It would seem very out of the ordinary to pronounce it in proper French when speaking with other Americans.

Jonathon Ross I get it, that's the case pretty much here in Spain. People pronounce English words badly enough to sound like they're hardly trying, but still have that touch. Ah, culture, I love you so.

@Jonathon Ross Another example: pronouncing "croissant" correctly is a meme now. It's so out of a place saying croissant right, that Americans will laugh at you. Or really anything French. At least Spanish words won't usually get you any funny looks. Actually, mispronouncing simple things like "tortilla" is likely to elicit a chuckle in most of the US.
