Overview

  • Apple TV+ released the first two episodes today, with new installments premiering each Friday across the eight-episode season.
  • The series, produced by Gordon Ramsay’s Studio Ramsay Global and hosted by TopJaw’s Jesse Burgess, follows chefs striving to win, keep or regain Michelin stars.
  • Three Chicago restaurants—Cariño, Esmé and Jacob Potashnick’s Feld—are featured, with Feld’s full segment set for the Oct. 17 episode.
  • Early reviews highlight rare behind-the-scenes access that delivers real tension in kitchens, especially in Chicago, while noting uneven pacing and thin character development elsewhere.
  • The production emphasizes the Michelin Guide’s strict anonymity by depicting inspectors with stand-ins, discreet filming and altered voices.
