Bourdain Goes Back to the Kitchen for No Reservations 'Techniques' Episode

Next week on No Reservations, Anthony Bourdain sheds his "bad boy" persona and channels his inner Martha Stewart for the "Techniques" episode. Calling it "something of a departure" from the standard format, it's a special "hour of instruction" showing basic techniques and how to prepare some classic dishes. And Bourdain brings in the big guns: chefs Jacques Pepin, Scott Conant, Laurent Tourondel, Dave Pasternak, and Thomas Keller. Says Bourdain, "I happen to believe you should learn to feed yourself and maybe a few others." Could someone please give Bourdain his own cooking show?
