Sean Brock And Anthony Bourdain Eat At The Waffle House
Zero Point Zero Production, Inc.

A short clip from Anthony Bourdain's Parts Unknown in which he and chef Sean Brock end a long night of drinking at a Charleston Waffle House. It celebrates the unpretentious, welcoming late-night diner. Bourdain's remark comparing the meal favorably to the French Laundry is what people remember.
HN commenters cite it whenever Waffle House comes up, as a touchstone for Bourdain's love of humble, unfancy places.
