The Chef Show

It's actually amazing. I love John and Roy's rhythm, the cooking the subtle and not so subtle jokes. Must watch for cooking an Favreau fans.

As a fan of the movie CHEF I was intrigued enough to check this cooking show out. What a fun find! I loved the guests and the conversations while they're prepping and cooking. Jon and Roy are a great pairing to host. My favorite: the Aaron Franklin episodes, so fascinated with the Texas bbq style he's mastered and I appreciated the lesson in how to make the brisket. Can't wait for the Hot Luck Festival 2020 😝

If you loved Jon Favreau and Roy Choi's Chef (2014) movie, you'll love this 8 part cooking companion series. It replicates many of the dishes in the movie (Scarlett Johanssen's pasta aglio e olio, cubana sandwich, gourmet grilled cheese, chocolate lava cake, berries with caramel dust & whipped cream, Cafe Du Monde beignet). Guests include cast & crew from Chef & Jon's Hollywood and Marvel connection (Robert Downey Jr, Tom Holland, Gwyneth Paltrow, director Robert Rodriguez, Marvel Studio Pres. Kevin Feige). One episode honored the late LA food critic Jonathan Gold who helped expand Roy Choi's Kogi as well as Jitlada Thai restaurant. Chef David Chang puts in a guest appearance along with Pitmaster Aaron Franklin and the Atlanta staff of Holeman & Finch and The Optimist. As Roy and Jon cook, you get some great cooking tips and I love the animation that dissects the ingredients in each dish.

I knew after the first episode that I was going to love this show! Jon and Roy not only have a infectious friendship that makes you feel like a part of the crew but they are also so genuine, humble and real! This is what I watch when I need some inspiration. It's easy to fall back in love with cooking after just one episode of the Chef Show.

Simply one of the best cooking shows out there. The genuine friendliness and love of food from Jon Favreau and Roy Choi is very much evident, and it makes the show outstanding and immensely watchable.
