Cooking is an art, without a doubt. Thanks to the times we are living in, we have a chance to get exposed to plenty of culinary legends as well as home chefs who've managed to make a mark for themselves through their talent and extraordinary skills in the kitchen. Some of the most noteworthy examples include filmmaker Andrew Rea from the YouTube show Binging With Babish, cookbook author and YouTube star Joshua Weissman, celebrity chef Laura Vitale, and more.
But what do viewers think about the culinary legends that they've been exposed to so far? Is there a chef who's managed to impress them a lot more than the others?
