Summarized by durumis AI

  • Netflix's variety show 'Black and White Chefs (Culinary Class Wars)' is a program where 20 'Silver Spoon' chefs and 80 'Black Spoon' chefs compete in cooking battles, with Baek Jong-won and Chef Ahn Seong-jae serving as judges.
  • The program becomes more realistic with the participation of chefs who have extensive experience running restaurants, and detailed information about the chefs and their restaurants who appear prominently among the 80 'Black Spoon' chefs is presented.
  • With three episodes aired so far, the show is captivating viewers with Baek Jong-won's reactions and the chefs' efforts, raising expectations for the entire series that spans 12 episodes.

Information about the Netflix variety show 'Black and White Chef (Culinary Class Wars)'

The initial title of Netflix's 'Black and White Chef (Culinary Class Wars)' was 'Anonymous Chef'.

It is a variety show where 20 top star chefs with a 'Silver Spoon' and 80 skilled chefs with a 'Black Spoon' who are recognized for their great taste, compete against each other in a cooking competition. It is a variety show where they compete based on taste. These days, the popularity of cooking shows is fading, but this is a variety show worth watching. Especially, since many people who run restaurants have participated, it makes me wonder if there are some places worth visiting.

Review

I found it funny in episode 3 when CEO Baek Jong-won asked if his mouth was open. It was the same when he was eating bath. Overall, it was well-expressed, making me want to try the food, and their efforts were clearly shown. It's been running for 4 episodes, and I'm looking forward to the entire 12 episodes. I think the ratings will be good.
