Welcome to the Clever Cookstr, your ultimate window into the kitchens of the world’s best cooks.
We’re so thrilled today to be recording on location from the set of ABC’s cooking competition, The Taste, where home cooks and professional chefs compete side by side to create incredible dishes. Once the clock runs out, each dish has a single opportunity – literally just one bite – to impress the panel of experts.
Last week we talked to two of the experts, chefs Marcus Samuelsson and Ludo Lefebvre. Be sure to check out Part 1 of this Q&A series.

We’re also joined by Anthony Bourdain, a fellow judge on The Taste and host of the hugely popular CNN show, Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. He’s also the author of the bestselling book Kitchen Confidential.
