‘Culinary Class Wars’ is coming to Netflix with a unique concept, featuring two legendary judges
Coming to Netflix on September 17 is a survival show that disregards all titles and focuses entirely on the food. The newly released teaser trailer gives us a sneak peek at Culinary Class Wars, in which 100 chefs face off in a test of taste and skill.
The chefs are divided into two groups: ‘Black Spoon’—who hail from home-meal restaurants, Chinese restaurants, trendy pubs, and school canteens—given a chance to prove themselves against Korea’s top ‘White Spoon’ chefs, including Michelin-starred chefs, culinary competition winners, and other chefs who have made culinary history. This diverse lineup promises an explosive and delectably entertaining watch.
