We challenged Chris Morocco to recreate Maangchi's seafood kimchi fried rice in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen. The catch? He’s doing it blindfolded with with only his other senses to guide him.

  • We all collectively agree that
    1. We need grocery trips
    2. He needs a third trial round
    3. We needed theses videos faster, this is one of the best segments on BA.

    Thanks Chris for another great video!
  • @angelenaj0Li3
    This is the only thing I still watch on BA channel. Love Chris!
  • @rappermc
    You've really got to give him a Round 3. He needs a chance to vet his changes.
  • @OldSoul_0113
    We are once again asking for Chris shopping at the grocery store
  • @Debba521
    Firstly, I really think they should bring back Chris shopping for his own ingredients, and not just because of the shopping cart riding 😁. That's Chris' first chance to determine what should go in the dish and I love watching him thinking it through in the store! Next, there are never enough of these shows! Chris needs to be doing this every week. We need him to be doing this every week. And last, it's rare I feel this way when watching him reverse engineer a dish, but this time I almost didn't care how close he got. I just wanted to do a full on face plant into his food! Dang, it looked fab and tasty. Chris is a rock star of cuisine. 🎸 🎶
  • @Manikw
    Honestly, the grocery store part was always so impressive. Why remove it? Giving him all the ingredients is not as impressive
  • @Nasalkeihpos
    For this episode I would have liked to see him go shopping because it would be cool to see him go to an Asian supermarket.
    I’d be interested in Chris trying to recreate takeout!
  • @SvEnjoyPro
    I want him to be able to test his first attempt alongside his second taste-test
  • @Agispsi
    He needs 3 rounds, even if there isnt another shopping trip, he can swap back to what he did before or swap to a different technique or ingredient he was on the fence about.
  • I see other say it too: Chris remains the only BA thing that bring us here , and it's happening rather rarely.
  • @linmanuel
    have yall ever thought maybe chris doesn’t want to shop?😭
  • @jasonsoverino
    can't express my heart felt gratitude enough over the correct pronunciation of our beloved shellfish.
  • @jennawhite1277
    Yesssss finally an episode with a specific chef's recipe again! These videos are so much more fun! And love the Maangchi vids in particular!
  • @deprofundis3293
    My two cents - I think she was TOTALLY fair. I loved this episode.

    I honestly don't like when Chris doesn't get enough of a challenge, anyway. He can handle challenges!
  • @quixoticallyQ
    Don’t worry Chris, we don’t all miss the grocery shopping. I personally don’t feel like it added much
  • @splashers5
    you should do one where someone cooks one of chris’ own recipes and tries to have him guess that! 😂
  • Ok, we didn't get Chris shopping, but we got a compilation of him riding on carts, that made my week 😂
