For the 11th year in a row, San Francisco film geeks came to worship at the Church of Peaches Christ this past summer of 2008.

Old trophies, boy scout badges and photographs are among the relics scattered throughout the rooms and grounds, off Highway 49 in Hopson, Mississippi.

People journey to the inn from all over the world to troll through things most would discard. Some are there to reconnect with their culture, while others come from afar in search of something authentic.

We took No Reservation’s host Anthony Bourdain down to Oakland’s International Boulevard to get his take on the taco trucks that line the boulevard.
