#2 The Chef Show
Jon Favreau might be best known for his Disney, MCU and Star Wars fares, but not many know he’s also a great cook.

In this cooking-slash-traveling show, Favreau and his buddy, celebrity chef Roy Choi, tour America on the hunt for the best food truck meals, often collaborating with the tenants themselves to recreate their recipes.
