Love letter to Québec

I watched this for the first time last night. It is the late and great Anthony Bourdain hanging out in Montréal and Québec City with two of Canada's most respected chefs and restaurateurs: Dave McMillan and Fred Morin of the famed restaurant Joe Beef . Initially aired in 2013, it's hard not to miss Bourdain when you watch it. And it's also hard not to love Québec. This is an episode about humility, authenticity, good living, and, of course, some of the best food and drink in the world. Bourdain has a great line right before they visit Wilensky's (in Le Plateau area of Montréal) where he says, "no matter how you feel about Québec as either separate or as an essential part of Canada, any reasonable person loves this place." I couldn't agree more.
