I'm a big soccer fanatic, and although I support a team called Tottenham Hotspur in London - I love that team, I wear their symbol around my neck on a chain - I've always had a soft spot for this little club.

I'm Adam Richman. A food fanatic who's held nearly every job in the restaurant biz. Now I'm on a mouth-watering journey to find America's greatest pig-out spots.

I lived in San Jose for a little bit, and one of my neighbors was Vietnamese and was teasing me. I said I've had pho, and then he goes, Oh, what do you get, the number one big bowl? I was like, Come on, man. You don't have to come at me like that. But yeah, I've tried tendon. Tendon eventually yields.
