Chef David Chang’s ‘Ugly Delicious’ Debuts on Netflix Next Month (Video)

Guests include Jimmy Kimmel, Gillian Jacobs and Ali Wong

A new food series is coming to Netflix next month, the streaming service announced Thursday.

“Ugly Delicious” is hosted by Momofuku founder Chef David Chang, who travels the world in eight episodes to explore how food is used as a vehicle to break down cultural barriers.

Guests include comedian Ali Wong, actors Eric Wareheim and Gillian Jacobs, late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, chefs René and Nadine Redzepi, LA Times food critic Jonathan Gold, and several more.

“Food is something we all have in common. It’s an essential part of who we are and how we create connections across cultures,” said James Beard Award winner Chang in a press release. “In that spirit, we brought together some of the people we admire most to make Ugly Delicious a collaborative forum, a place where it’s okay to have strong opinions and honest conversations about food.”

“Ugly Delicious” is produced by Tremolo Productions. Executive producers include Morgan Neville, David Chang, Eddie Schmidt, Peter Meehan, Christopher Chen, Lisa Nishimura, Ben Cotner and Adam Del Deo.

Stream “Ugly Delicious” on Netflix February 23.
