  • Expert chef Frank and home cook Lorenzo are swapping their recipes and ingredients, just for your viewing pleasure. We gave Lorenzo $500 worth of ingredients and Frank's notebook to make the best steak dinner he could (with a quick assist from food scientist Rose!) On the other side, Frank received $16 worth of goods and tried to improvise his way up to gourmet. Who achieved the most impressive results under these mixed up circumstances?

    I love this show because I want to be a pretty decent chef and this isn’t boring to watch and I learn Frank is talking about what he is doing while cooking and it’s pretty interesting and then Lorenzo is making the show funny and entertaining and I’m even learning from him I even laughed a few times
