ARLINGTON, VA -- TV chef and traveler Anthony Bourdain passed away tragically at the age of 61 on Friday. He left behind a legacy of traveling the world to experience countless cultures that most people aren't even aware of, and on one occasion he was truly blown away by a small restaurant here in Arlington.

El Pollo Rico, the no-frills Peruvian chicken joint located on Kenmore Street in the Virginia Square area, had such a great reputation that Bourdain dropped by unannounced for a 2009 episode of "No Reservations," and the visit made the cut of his D.C. show. You can watch the clip below.

"An unimpressive looking parking lot in Arlington, Virginia, the smell of something truly delicious issuing from somewhere," Bourdain said in the voice-over for the episode. "I really and truly had no plans to shoot here. I showed up cold, they didn't expect us, and I had no one in mind to show me around."
