No the episodes remain man heavy but there are contributions and some quite significant moments from female chefs/food writers/restaurant owners.
Having watched (a little of) chefs table which is predominantly male, the criticism of the male bias probably should cover all of food world rather than just ugly delicious. -
yeah we didn't get beyond two episodes. Mrs Hell refers to is as the "Annoying Chinaman show". she's not wong.

I finally got round to watching the first episode of Ugly Delicious, a good time after the discussions here, after reading something about it in a Jay Rayner review.
It was interesting and I like the concept, and really wanted pizza, but: 1) as mentioned, David Chang comes across as a bit of an arsehole and 2) Maybe this says as much about the world of pizza or restaurants as the programme, but I was still surprised at how few women featured anywhere in the show. Are all the episodes these super sausage fests?
