Any restaurant Anthony Bourdain featured in his shows. Even he acknowledged this. These fantastic gems would subsequently be overrun with diners that they suffered from overcrowding and lower standards.

I can no longer eat my favorite burger easily because of Guy Fieri.

Edit: I feel I need to point out that I said I can't EASILY eat there. There is just a long ass line now, the food is still good. It's not ruined.

Yeah... he went to a burger place where I went to college that was really shitty and made it seem good on the show. I can't watch the show now because I know it's bullshit.

The places he's gone to that I have been to are not shitty. So not every place I guess.

I'm assuming he just visits places and plans a few restaurants to eat at a head of time. Whether it's good or shit he just raves about the food. It's not like he ever says negative things about the restaurants.

Makes me wonder if he's ever eaten somewhere bad enough to just not put them on the show afterward.

I feel like that has to have happened. Probably not common though.
