I expected just another typical food show. Visting the restaurant and focusing on the dish. It blew that out of the water and in the best way! It's really refreshing to the cooking show world. You're getting more personal with the actual city/town, region, and history behind the people. The food and how it is a representation. The show manages to bring out all the heart warming feelings and smiles. I absolutely adore it and hope there will be many more seasons to come! All kinds of small places around the country.
