Chef's Table is an American documentary series created by David Gelb[2], which premiered on video streaming service Netflix on April 26, 2015.[3] The series takes viewers inside both the lives and kitchens of a variety of acclaimed and successful international chefs,[4] with each episode placing the spotlight on a single chef and exploring the unique lives, talents and passions which influence their style of cooking. The series has been nominated for and awarded a variety of awards, including 8 Emmy nominations,[5] and was renewed for a seventh and eighth season on May 20, 2019.[6]
Background
Each episode of the series focuses on a specific chef, and explores their personal philosophies and approach to cooking.[7] Creator David Gelb considers it a follow-up to his documentary Jiro Dreams of Sushi. He teamed up with Brian McGinn to develop Chef's Table with Boardwalk Pictures and Netflix became interested in it. Both documentaries make use of cinematography and production techniques based on traditional filmmaking rather than reality television.[8]
