Also watched the first episode on Massimo the other night and though it was great. A friend of mine said it's easily the strongest of the series. Fell asleep sometime during the next episode but I'm looking forward to the rest of them.
Massimo's episode was great, probably my favorite so far, but the other two I've seen(Magnus and Blue Hill) were outstanding as well.
Chefs table dropped on Netflix yesterday, I think. First ep is grant Achatz and alinea. It's great (especially if you've never heard his story)

I just started that one and I can already tell it's going to be my favorite. Are they milking a damn moose?
I just want to eat in that restaurant surrounded by glass overlooking Moscow. I'd even eat moose lips for the chance.
I'm jealous. Finished the series. I'll be hitting up the little mom and pop place around the corner from work this week for a noodle bowl. The ramen guy has me craving.
Agree the Russian episode was the best. Really interesting hearing how Putins embargo affected their food scene.
Really enjoyed the Ana Ros episode. The Soča Valley is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been
its a great restaurant if you ever get the chance I lived near there in Italy one summer in college. Its fantastic.
