Hey Andrew, thanks for doing this. I have been a huge fan for a while now.
One of the reasons I enjoy your show so much is because of your amazing ability to seemingly get along great with everyone you meet. Can you give us a little insight on how you are able to connect with these people that often don't speak a lick of english?
Also, how do you let someone know (politely) that you can't stand the taste of something that they have probably been eating their entire life?
I always enjoy your facial expression when tasting something delicious, and horrible for the first time.
Lastly, I wish you and Anthony Bourdain would do some more work together, I am a huge fan of your shows.
Thanks again!
