I like the concept , but there are some serious hangups. First, the stupid talking hat needs to go. That's the only major complaint.
Aside from that , it needs development and refinement , but it is fun and quirky , and something different. I personally enjoy the chef's judging each other's food, and the fact not everyone is an award winning chef. You don't have to be a world class master of quisine understand cooking techniques , flavor profiles etc., And to be able to use them to judge a dish.
It's is a new take on cooking shows , and may not be for everybody . But it's a pretty cool show with a twist.
