Street Food: EUA

Yes, it's been done before, yes it's another tv show about food, but man, did they do it right. The people, the food, the shots, very well done. What really makes this a joy to watch is connecting with these families, their stories, they are all so emotional, sweet, sad, joyful. I love seeing each of their passion shine. Well done Netflix. Well done.

Such a great series that I binged it all in one evening which is easy as each episode is only 30 minutes long. Street Food: USA, contains people who love food and who love selling and sharing their food with their communities. The food they make is like sermons of love that you eat to get the spiritual message of family, service, passion and identity. These are the culturally diverse people that make up the melting pot that is the USA. These are people who have become icons in their community because of their excellence and ability to hustle. Each episode focuses on a different US city, Los Angeles, Portland, New York, New Orleans, Oahu, and Miami. And this is food that I could almost smell and taste. And though I would try it all, and these are all great cities, Portland appeared to be the place of true invention and experimentation in presenting everything from Vegan dishes (like Vegan Pork Belly) to pork and beef BBQ. And while the food is all great, it is the stories of the different people involved in the food that makes this series magical.

Viewed on Netflix. Reviewed July 2022.

If i wanted to know so much about peoples struggles, i would have watched another realty serie. If the name is street food, put at least some decent places which i can visit. Its more like a drama serie and thats not wat i want from a food show. A lot of youtube street-food vidz are way much better than this drama thing. Take a better look at their content. Failed series for me!

Nothing spectacular with this series. Nothing that hasn't already been done before. I remember seeing a few of the places that were featured on Somebody Feed Phil. The different foods were good and so were the people that were featured. They could have gone to different cities though instead of the same ones. Just an average series. If you like to watch food shows there are better ones streaming now on Netflix.

I have been searching for a new food show since the death of Anthony Bourdain and the end of Parts Unknown. It doesn't quite fill the void, but it is a really good show. I love hearing the stories of the people behind the food. Those criticizing the show, are missing the point. This is about the story behind the street food. It is about the history and the people. Plus you get to see some delicious food!
