    • Synopsis
    • A celebrity chef like no other, Susan Feniger is a beloved culinary icon, known for her work as one half of the FOOD Network’s Too Hot Tamales, as the star of Top Chef Masters, and as the owner of several hugely influential restaurants. Now, join Feniger on her latest daring venture as she journeys to the other side of the world to experience first-hand the cuisine of Southeast Asia, with the dream to reinvent the street food scene back home in Los Angeles with revolutionary new flavours, all from one kitchen.
      However, she will need to overcome the daunting task of building her first solo restaurant from the ground up. Meanwhile, with the construction at risk of literally falling apart at any moment, she must also put her reputation on the line with unconventional recipes that refuse to come together!

      This charming, innovative, and ultimately inspirational documentary features interviews with Feniger’s fellow acclaimed restaurateurs, writers, and television personalities including Wolfgang Puck, Bobby Flay, Barbara Fairchild and Mary Sue Milliken.
