Generally i like food competition shows but i didn't care for this one. There are several flaws in the format, Richman adds nothing, and the outcome seemed set-up, at least for the 1st episode.
The tasters were all amateurs and appeared to have a bias for dishes that appeared to be made "unprofessionally". Therefore the outcome seemed disingenuous.
There were several dishes that the amateur contestant had to prepare in competition with various professional chefs. The number of dishes didn't allow enough time for the viewer to appreciate any single one. Got tired of the countdowns to plating very quickly.
Really disliked this show.
