Pro chef Esther Choi, owner of Mŏkbar in New York and home cook Lorenzo are swapping ingredients and hitting the kitchen. We set Lorenzo up with all of the supplies he’d need to make Chef Esther’s out-of-this-world $151 fried chicken sandwich while sending his more modest $19 worth of ingredients back the other direction. While Esther was working her magic, food scientist Rose dialed in to assist her old friend Lorenzo with a few questions he had along her way. Watch and find out whose chicken sandwich is worth clucking over.

Like...I feel like I could do her version (not her 151 dollar version, but the version she chefs up) without blowing my wallet out. She's willing to come down to a level two to show that you can still make great food at a lower price and I appreciate that. Also, side note: i know I'm an adult, but can Lorenzo adopt me
