Hey guys, not sure if any of you watch this series on CNN called "Part's Unknown" (Bourdain is really the only show I watch on there). It's kind of a carry on from "No Reservations" he used to do on the travel channel.

Last night I caught an episode he did on Sicily. I'm not sure if it was a rerun or a new episode but it went into detail on the mafia and the antipizzo movement that has recently taken roots in Sicily in an attempt to stop the extortion payments. I think they mentioned in the past few years it went from a hundred businesses to around seven or eight hundred that have pledged to go to the police and not pay if confronted.

All in all it was a pretty good episode. He does his normal cuisine routine where he dines at the best hidden restaurants and samples the traditional food. Worth a watch if you have free time!
