//Join the adventurous Chef Andrew Zimmern as he travels through Asia, seeking out and eating some of the most Bizarre Foods on the planet. In this part of the globe, the freshest foods are mostly alive and almost everything is considered edible.//I also believe this pilot took on too much. Andrew visits three countries in one episode. Each country could have easily sustained an entire episode on its own. Instead, each visit felt rushed. Andrew didn't have enough time to really explore different tastes and places. Overall, this episode is a little rough around the edges--but most pilots are. I'm glad this wasn't the first episode of the series I saw, but I am glad that I eventually saw it. Some of Andrew's charm is there, but he's missing most of his humor. By the time the first episode of the series airs, he's regained both of these. And, the series as a whole is stronger for it. However, this glimpse of him shows just how far his hosting skills have come//
