Earlier this week the food news blog Eater.com announced
that Anthony Bourdain, the junkie line cook turned cult leader, will begin
filming on yet another spinoff of his show No
Reservations. Unlike his other
shows, The Lavatory will focus on the
expulsion of food rather than the consumption.
“Everyone gets to watch me travel the world and eat exotic
foods but I feel people need to see all aspects of my culinary adventures,”
Bourdain said in an exclusive interview with Eater.com. “Just like my minions, I mean viewers,
I take a lot of dumps and some of them can get pretty fucked up. What I really like about the show is
that we will also cover the best public restrooms the world has to offer so
there will be takeaway information from a full hour of watching me sit on the porcelain
throne squeezing my shit out.”
Eater.com also unveiled its new, unorthodox, first-hand
journalistic approach to covering The
Lavatory by promising full Blumpkin and Wiping coverage, finally making the
jump from the figurative to the literal in their Bourdain reporting. “We will have one staff member performing
fellatio on Tony during each bowel movement and another will wipe his ass when
he finishes. Real time updates
will be posted to the website and both staff members will be live tweeting
during each airing of the show.”
When asked how he felt about Eater.com’s bold new take on
journalism, Bourdain said he is “looking forward to it” and hopes he can
finagle a Cleveland Steamer and/or Hot Carl in addition to the regular Blumpkin
to spice up the show.
The Lavatory will initially only be shown in Germany but
individual episodes will be available for purchase online.

Will Tony invite Larry Craig back to the MSP restroom, or will he just reenact it with Zamir?
Wow, I can't wait for this show!! When he gets a little plugged up, maybe it will be my chance to show Bourdain what a BIG fan I am! (I am loving your new, snarkier updates. Nice job!)
Being from Ohio, I do appreciate that Mr. Bourdain will hopefully attempt to incorporate the mentioned "steamer" into the show.....it would definitely make it worth watching as well. Thanks so much for your insightful recipes....and will you have another video soon???? - they are stupendous...!!!!
A sick part of me really wants this to be true.
Right where Eater should be.
