So, I thought this belonged here.
While “green onion” isn’t in the episode description, No Reservations Season 4, Episode 14 (“Spain,” aired August 18, 2008) gave us one of the most beautiful onion-centric rituals ever: the calçotada.
Anthony Bourdain throws on a bib, heads to Catalonia, and joins a full-blown party where giant green onions (calçots) are charred over an open fire, peeled, and dunked in romesco sauce.
It’s smoky, messy, onion-fueled chaos… and Bourdain calls it exactly the kind of party he can get behind. Honestly? Same.
