How cool is that. I just love his show. Everywhere he goes he makes look so full of life, how nice that Cleveland will have the chance to shine too.

No.
Anthony Bourdain is often referred to as the chef's chef. A true underground cult hero that owns a place in New York and was discovered and placed under contract at the Travel Channel before the Cooking Channel started.
His shtick is traveling the world trying all sorts of wild weird dishes of that culture. The show that will always stick in my mind is when he was back in New York with his homies, they meet up late at night after everything closes for clear broth and bone marrow. Twenty of the top chef of New York siting around a large table sucking marrow out of bones. Seemed stranger than eating snakes in India to me.
Good show on the Travel Channel.

His first name is actually Moha. According to Cleveland.com it's pronounced:
Moha Orchid (pronounced mwah or-SHEED)

No mention of La Pita Express. I know Gary Dumm, Harvey Pekar were filmed at Tommy's and Harvey' home. I hope that Lakewoodite Gary Thomas' Ohio City Pasta shows up while they are at the Westside Market.
