Dishes in this episode are deceivingly simple; Chang travels to Japan for some yakitori and high-end sushi, eats at a ramen restaurant with a no talking rule, and his pal Daniel Patterson makes beets. [Originally aired 2012]

The Mind of a Chef
Narrated by Executive Producer Anthony Bourdain, The Mind of a Chef combines cooking, travel, history, humor, art and science into a cinematic journey, each episode capturing another glorious flicker from the mind of its subject and focusing on what it truly means to cook, think, create and live in the food-obsessed world that is The Mind of a Chef.

I had forgotten that Tony did voiceovers too. A real treat this Seasonal time of the year 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

The food was so amazing that it rendered the chef speechless. Simplest of food is hardest to perfect.

My fav yakitori place in Tokyo … the building is an old wooden structure, limited insulation, beautiful dyed cloth hanging around the interior. In the middle is a slightly elevated area where there are two large hibachis with two chefs cooking yakitori. The entire heat for the restaurant comes from those hibachis. If you sit near the chefs, it’s hot, but if you are in the back of the restaurant it’s cold, really cold in winter. So they give you a thick Kimono jacket to wear. You sit in the back, in your kimono, eating a bit of yakitori, slowly, and drinking hot sake. Perfection.

I'm no chef but it always amazes me how people don't appreciate the amount of work that can go into the seemingly simplest of dishes.Yakatori, Lumpia, Tamales, people wolf them down in 30 seconds and ask for more, with the shopping, marinating, prep, cooking and trying to serve hot it can take hours, maybe days. Their smiles are worth it.........barley.

European, or American, chicken soup is fine, David. It's like any other recipe, some people make things well and some don't.

Looking at the comments, it appears some are really bothered by David Chang's opinions, particularly that of American chicken noodle soup. Look, it's just that: an opinion. I happen to like American chicken noodle soup. Someone giving their two cents to the contrary won't disturb my peace in the least. Great episode, by the way. And that's my opinion only.

David was an Asian American growing up in American schools. People ragged on and disrespected his family's cuisine and culture all the time. I think he just likes throwing some shade back in the other direction.

I noticed this too. Celebrity chefs have always seemed to me to have been mostly comprised of generally unpleasant people for decades - Chang came along as maybe the most genuine and likeable to date and people still manage to pick a fight? Unreal

Beets are delicious when prepared properly. I think my generation (GenX) were the last to be raised on canned vegetables or fresh vegetables cooked until limp and brown. If that’s all you’ve ever had, you’d hate beets too. But when roasted with garlic in olive oil? They are sweet and earthy.

@@etherdog Tbh none of that is surprising about Chang to anyone that has listened to him talk ever lol. How 'canceled' are we talking about here, though? Just the target of anger of food publications for 15 minutes before they move on to the next thing to be mad at, or actually done?

Something feels disingenuous about a chef who claims to love great, simple dishes, and then complicates the most simple, delicious dishes.

@meximick 6 ай бұрын

OMG was the chicken soup too complicated for you? Was it the 3-4 ingredients in the chicken wing glaze??😂 More like something disingenuous with your limited observation.

Chang’s success isn’t just his skill but his extremely genuine, transparent and gentle nature - this is such a weak take
