Celebrity chef, author and TV personality Tony Bourdain ran into a snag filming an episode of his "No Reservations" series for the Travel Channel.

Bourdain and his crew were in Lebanon, and had just finished shooting in Beirut when Israeli airstrikes began. In a posting on the eGullet.com forums, Bourdain stated that the crew had been due to film in the Bekaa Valley on Thursday, but the violence forced them to cancel plans.

In a posting late Wednesday night, he said, "The Israelis just bombed the airport. Looks like we won't be going anywhere soon."

After the success of the TV version of "Cook's Tour" on Food Network, Travel Channel offered Bourdain a chance to do a similar show but giving him more creative control. Touring everywhere from New Jersey to Peru, he explores culinary life at street level and manages to find a wide range of bizarre items to eat and drink.

As of Friday, there was no official word from the Travel Channel on Bourdain's situation.
