Top Chef finalist Savannah Miller is back with me for one more week—this time to help unpack the chaos that is Yes, Chef!, NBC’s new cooking competition show that wants to “reform” toxic kitchen personalities. The premise? A group of hot-headed chefs are nominated by friends and family to confront their egos and bad behavior on national television… for $250,000.
But here’s the thing: it’s a mess.
The format is confusing. The food is mid. The redemption arc? Nonexistent. We’re not sure if this is a social experiment, a reality competition, or Hell’s Kitchen Lite. And don’t even get us started on Katsuji.
We break down episode one—from wild elimination twists to Martha Stewart and José Andrés just kind of… standing there—and try to figure out who this show is actually for.
🎧 Hit play and let us know: is Yes, Chef! a bold new take on food TV, or just another dish best left unserved?
