I love food competition shows and this show has different taste of others. You can watch not only amazing techniques and ideas but also such a beautiful personality and heartwarming behaviours! Wonderful show, I'd love to watch more seasons!!!!
This show is a joke judges are garbage. So hard to watch its really disappointing.. please don't waste your time watching it your blood will boil... so low budget not sure why its even on Netflix..
What a refreshing twist on the quintessential competitive cooking show!
No more screaming Executive Chefs controlling every aspect of their team's preparation, cooking, plating, etc... No more random "shopping for ingredients, or random cooking tasks. The topic for the week is known. Every dish is a popular dish, mostly recognizable by a majority of the viewing audience, and with the exception of a few familial recipies/modern takes, the preparation and cooking of each dish is straightforward. Don't change a thing! This show is what every competitive cooking show, shy of Iron Chef/(Whatever Country's) Next Top Chef, should base their premise on. Fantastic Job, I'm enthralled!

I really love cooking shows and so when I stumbled upon this one featuring a Vietnamese cook off (Season 1), I was so excited. The whole idea of having home cooks competing against professionals threw me off a bit. I felt like it was too obvious the professionals had the upper hand in these competitions. BUT still, I loved the food that everyone cooked up. Made me hungry throughout the whole show.
The judging process was a bit weird to me. I've only seen season 1 so far, so maybe it's different for the other ones? But I just felt that having one judge determining the winning plate was a bit...unfair and that three opinions would've been so much better in determining the best.

This show reminds me of The Great British Baking Show since it features home cooks competing. The twist is that they also compete against restaurant cooks/chefs, which makes it even more entertaining. I have learned so many new dishes while watching this show and it's great that they focus on authentic cooking from different cuisines. Also, there isn't a lot of drama like with so many other cooking shows and this is a HUGE plus!! I absolutely love this show!
