Follow No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain on Foodspotting!

If it weren’t for okonomiyaki, there would be no Foodspotting, and if it weren’t for No Reservations, I might never have learned about okonomyaki. So we all have Anthony Bourdain and the Travel Channel to thank for making Foodspotting possible in the first place!

I fell in love with hard-to-find foods on a trip to Osaka, Japan, where I sampled okonomiyaki & takoyaki, which I first learned about from Tony’s Osaka episode. I returned to San Francisco craving these foods, only to find there was no easy way to look up or rate specific dishes. So I set out to create a way for people to learn about new dishes and find them locally, and thus, Foodspotting was born.

I’ll be the first to admit that I still always I want to know what Tony’s eaten near me. (Here’s me at Koyoshi Sushi on my last trip to Japan…)

And that wish has finally become reality with today’s big announcement:

Travel Channel has partnered with Foodspotting to make recommendations from No Reservations available to me & you via location-based guides on Foodspotting. The first guide they’ve created is quite a masterpiece - 100 foods from around the world to celebrate the 100th episode which means you should be able to launch Foodspotting in any city Bourdain has been to on No Reservations and see the closest foods he’s tried. Not only that, but you can also share your own experiences with Tony & fans by posting photos to Foodspotting.

Because Foodspotting is all about sharing food experiences, I can’t imagine a better partner to launch our guides platform with than the Travel Channel & No Reservations.

Follow the Travel Channel on Foodspotting — we can’t wait to see how many of Tony’s recommendations you’ve tried!
