Summary: Alton Hits A Home Run Again
Comment: Feasting On Asphalt is a superb four part series from Good Eats' Alton Brown. Setting across the country in one month on a motorcycle, Mr. Brown sets out on a journey in search of authentic "road food". Traversing his way through the South, into the Midwest and ultimately the road food capital of the country, Los Angeles, Mr. Brown takes the viewer off the beaten path into restaurants, drive-in's, luncheonettes and other eateries in both the small towns and big cities. Sprinkled with his trademark wit as well as some deep thoughts, the show is an interesting and captivating travelogue of the highways and byways of this country. Plus you get to see Mr. Brown wipeout big time on his motorcycle. The dvd has outtakes which essentially gives you four alternative episodes, so if you have already seen the original episodes these are worth the cost of the set.

Summary: Typical high-quality production from Alton Brown and Co.
Comment: This is a great series for foodies and adventurers. We're long-time fans of Good Eats (our kids quote "Altonisms" endlessly), and we expect the bar to be set pretty high for this new series. In a word, it's great. And really entertaining. Brainy. Thoughtful. Fun. All of the things you hope for when you tear off the shrinkwrap. I think one of the reasons we enjoyed this set so much is that the production values--even as a travelogue--are so good. Although some of the shtick is gimmicky and overdone, it works as entertainment and it draws the viewer into what is unquestionably "Alton's World." A very cool DVD set and, for us, a wise investment we will enjoy over and over again.

Summary: AWSOME
Comment: If you're a fan of Alton Brown's hit show Good Eats on the Food Network, or of motorcycling in general, you're going to love this series. He rides the way I wish I could; now if I could only get away for a month of motorcycling and culinary exploration.......
