Guerra Culinária

I just had to rave about this show because I LOVED IT SOOOOOOOOO MUCH! Everyone needs to watch it! It's not only incredibly well thought out, but also introduces unique methods of judging, different battle styles, and overall feels much more dynamic compared to similar American shows. The diversity and depth are astounding, making it far more engaging and entertaining.

As someone who's watched thousands of great movies from Bollywood, Hollywood, Korean dramas, and anime, this show truly stands out as my first in this genre. It's a breath of fresh air! The creative storytelling, intense moments, and unpredictable twists kept me hooked from start to finish. It's rare to find a show that manages to blend action, strategy, and emotion so seamlessly. Whether you're a fan of competition shows or just looking for something new, trust me, this one's a must-watch! You'll be on the edge of your seat the whole time!

Koreans truly put on the best competition shows on, whether it is cooking or physical shows, always including the top stars in their fields and mixing that with unknowns who are good or up and coming and want to go up. They add in drama and unbelievable sets and unique competitions. This one was divided between the white spoons (famous and Michelin Star chefs) team vs. The black spoons ( the talented or self taught chefs). Immediately some of the black spoons stand out who are unique characters that start early beating the professionals. Just to give one example, there is the Comic Book Chef who is self taught by reading comic books and making the dishes in the books unbelievably good, winning against the pros in a blind taste test. . Just fun overall. Won't spoil it but my favorite from the very beginning, did win so was very happy. His contender was extremely good in taste and a lot of it was trying to sell his story with the dish which was touching to a Korean I am sure but one comment may have been offending to a Patriot - after all. Anyway my star deduction has nothing to do with anything other than the one fact that I am thinking it may be produced in a way to make sure a white spoon and a black spoon survive for the final (just saying..) because they would never be able to have a second season otherwise - no Michelin or oro chefs would ever want to sign up again if none of them survived right? Not sure but the black spoon who went home #3) may have got the short end of the stick IMO?

"Culinary Class Wars" is hands down one of the best cooking shows I've ever seen! Unlike typical cooking competitions, this show really stands out by building intense tension from start to finish. What sets it apart is watching world-class chefs, alongside hobbyists, truly put their reputations on the line-it's not just a battle for the best dish, it's a battle for pride. The fear and pressure you see on their faces during each challenge is palpable, making it a real nail-biter. The unique judging style is a breath of fresh air, breaking away from the conventional formats of other cooking shows. It brings a new level of excitement and unpredictability, keeping you glued to the screen. Definitely a must-watch for fans of culinary competitions!

No drama,no backstabbing, no political statement, no jealousy just pure talent and honest judgement .At first i was sceptical this would be another reality show full of drama just to get more views but i was wrong. It's hard to find this kinda reality show nowadays. The two finalist gave their best and evenly matched. Hopefully they'll have Season 2 and maintain the same judging criteria and the contestants have the same attitude. This kinda reality show focus solely on cooking talent, nothing else. For me everyone is a winner, they gave their best and did it from bottom of their heart. Well done chef's,don't give up!

Watching this series really was refreshing. It was a unique take on cooking competition and had me hooked. I was so into it that i mark the dates where the next episode comes out. Each round of the competition differed dramatically and were surprisingly fair... The judges are quite the deal. The set, lighting, camera work is beyond perfect... Some of the dishes (and chefs) are beyond perfect that you question if its a show or scripted ?? One of my favourite rounds were restaurant round and black spoons vs while spoons. Give it a go recommend 10/10. (i even made an imdb account to post this review! Hehe)
