não quero tirar minhas próprias conclusões

I'm not even a fan of cooking shows but I really like this. I'm not gonna dwell on whether it was rigged or not, the earlier challenges (specially the literal blind tasting) looks fair to me. If there is one stage that I feel the production may have rigged it, it is the "Cook your Life" challenge, probably they had to ensure atleast one from Black Spoon is in the finals. Too much advantage gained from that immunity.

Anyhow, it was fun. I love that this show did not create any drama, they could have had content for that with the tension during team challenges, but rather they focused on the cooking. Kudos for that! And the editing is really funny in a subtle way.
All of the Chefs are quite likeable, it's just too bad that Matfia's little trash-talking didn't translate well (with good reason) to the public because his fellow Chefs are basically too nice and humble.
My favorites are Chef Lee, Chef Maniac (if stress was a person lol), Chef Choi (so cocky yet so humble), Self-Made Chef and Triple Star. They are so anime character coded haha.
And honestly, it would have been perfect if it was Triple Star who made it to the finals.
Hope they do a season 2.
And I hope no scandal shows up that will tarnish the feel good vibes it left (yes, I'm having a flashback from Physical 100 scandals lol).
