I Challenged a Michelin Star Chef to a Cooking Competition 

Chef Jackson "secretly" helping Connor, his favorite student, is actually goated just because he wanted to show off the other challenges he prepared for them. Love him

Man the chef was a real funny dude in addition to being a goated sushi chef

Love how the chef has sushi elo 3600 but jokes around with the 800s

5:00 I love that Chef Jackson was SO READY for the sake shot. Without skipping a beat, he was like "LET'S DO IT!", hell yeah.

I like how in the beginning chef Jackson seems kinda nervous and then by the end he is completely comfortable and joking with them

Chef Jackson is so charismatic, love it

Chef Jackson is the GOAT. Seems like such a cool guy.

Dude this chef is awesome and really funny, bring him back sometimes

I loved this video, especially seeing how Chef Jackson got more relaxed hanging out with you guys as the challenges progressed

I love how Jackson treats Connor like his favorite child xD

I love how chef Jackson was trying to sneakily help Connor throughout the video because he genuinely wanted him to make something great. It was so sweet to see

I love that chef's bias 🤣

I can't believe they cut out the part where they were measuring the rice to see if it was 9 grams or not and blamed it on the weighing machine, that was so funny.

I would love a Ludwig Vs Taxes for his redemption arc

I love how much the Chef was helping Connor. 😂😂 I was expecting him to be a very serious guy, but I'm glad that he wasn't that and was having fun.

I thought Ludwig was gonna compete against the actual goat tier chef at first and I was dying laughing, glad to see the challenge should actually be somewhat reasonable lol

the full length vod for this is unbeatable it was so funny watching lud slowly descend into drunkness and continuously say let me cook

Even though this video has been out for a little over an hour now, I have watched this 36 times and can confirm it is a certified Ludwig classic

I wanted to see the meal that the chef prepared for the winner 👀

This was so fun to watch live. The person playing the music live in the restaurant was top notch. Brought the experience to another level. Can't wait to see what crazy stuff you have planned next.

i think the fact that the chef was so cool is a big part of why this was so fun to watch

I love how he just says "chat, pog" like he's directing them that now is the time to clap lmao

Ludwig's knife skills are nothing short of barbaric. I'm surprised he doesn't have more cuts, but props for trying this insane challenge. Sushi is NOT easy

I love how the chef Jackson felt sorry for Connor, and started helping him out more and more.

thé chef was cool af

This stream took bro vs pro to a new level, and I think this will be a huge hit as a series. One of the best streams I've seen in a long time

This chef needs to be on TV shows . He is super charismatic

This was so fun. Ludwig should make more videos like this

Man I really love the Connor Ludwig dynamics, they bounce off each other so well. Had me wheezing so many times.

The fact that they got a live performing music artist on set is insane, react Andy’s could never

The live musician was actually incredible too, the theatrical musical motifs are amazing!

This was a hilarious stream and a hilarious edit. Totally looking forward to more of the VS series, Lud!

bro how are people calling this video 'life changing' within the first minute of release

11:27 "I need some sake just looking at you two" got me rolling. Need some more of this chef pls.

ludwig just wanted some free good sushi

I want more Chef Jackson content

I luv how Chef Jackson was a bit nervous at the start but overtime he was more comfortable and I’m glad he was cuz he seems like a great guy :))

I absolutely love this dude. Very practiced, very well skilled, excellent teacher, and a fantastic sense of humor. Dude killed me the whole episode. I really hate the types who take their job so seriously they can't joke around even a little bit. Dudes nothing like that. I love that so much

Damnnn Lud we making it out the *château* with this one

The chef was actually hilarious. That combined with the live music reacting to what was happening, man what a good vid.

Was the music performed live? It seems like they acknowledged it a couple times as if it was happening in person. If that's the case whoever was performing had remarkable comedic timing. The sour notes being played when Ludwig and Connor present their botch jobs are hilarious

This is totally unexpected, nevertheless top-tier content, that I love to see Ludwig put out once in a while. It’s risky, unexpected, well done, produced/directed/edited with class + a dash of chaos for entertainment’s & humor’s sake. Always enjoy his vods like these.

The “yes chef, sorry chef” was funny to me reminds me of the Gordon Ramsay show.

God I was so scared for Connor during this whole thing, knowing that even a relatively small cut could put him in the hospital.

Chef Jackson said he wasn't going to say anything and then proceeds to help Connor the whole time 😂

I love these types of videos where he brings on a random professional. Its so cool to see the different personalities of these people and how they interact with internet/streamer culture

“I’m not gonna say anything” immediately gives them advice about how much rice to use 😂

“I’m not gonna say anything” immediately starts saying everything

The editing and quality of this video is absolutely amazing. I hope this is the new standard for your videos going forward this was top tier content.

this stream was one of my all-time favs. the live music really set the mood and chef jackson was hilarious

he needs his own show with no filters or censorship cause he has a natural sense of humour

The funniest part of this video is how they didn't show the pain and struggle of Ludwig attempted to skin the cucumbers from the stream, that was intense

I have to say, you guys REALLY found the perfect professional for the video. He fit in so well and engaged in the jokes and banter seamlessly. Great vid!

Chef Yu is a surprisingly good camera personality 🤣

Love the higher quality stuff

This was absolutely amazing, love the chefs attitude, super funny guy👍🏻

There is something so awesome/ wholesome about seeing someone like the chef, who is basically a expert, top of the world in his craft, but behind all that is just a normal chill dude.

i’ve watched this video countless times over the years, it was an instant classic when it came out.

This was great! Definitely looking forward to more of the Ludwig vs. series

this chef is hilarious, you can definitely tell he had fun doing this

Had already sat through the stream but the editing of this video really made me wanna just sit back and watch this again, mad ups to the person that edited it

This was one of the coolest streams I have watched in its entirety!! It felt like a whole video and I do not know how you where able to get it cut down so much! And the editing is so good!!!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the fact how CHEF JACKSON was SO NERVOUS AT THE BEGINNING but NEARING THE END he got MORE COMFORTABLE

I just wanna stop and appreciate that there was no hesitation from Jackson when Ludwig requested Sake. It's like he expected it. He was ready. Goated.

Shout out to the camera guy, the zoom ins were perfect watching it live.

This video was SO GOOD, i laughed my ass off. Chef Jackson is hilarious and seems to be an extraordinary chef on top :)

They both did number 5 so terribly he literally couldn't decide lmao.

after ludwig’s humiliation during the chess slapping match he had to invite Connor to get him back

When you come to Japan to meet Connor next I can show you some more tips!

Bro chef Jackson is so fucking chill. Stuff like this really hinges on how the non stream/RU-vidr acts and you love to see it when they fit in and are so comfortable

Absolutely love this new format! So much fun to be done.

Chef was ready to drink sake immediately. Amazing.

the chef is so cool, love it when people are so chill and open with creators. if i am ever able to i will 100% be visiting his restaurant

Love the Hongdae, Seoul shot of South Korea when mentioning how he visits Japan once a year lol.

Most stuff in the kitchen if you show me I can copy but damn that avocado ball was sun else could see each separate cut perfectly even after he shaped it

i would love to see more cooking ones

Aw, "open the snake" got cut from the video. As someone who works in sushi, the whole stream was very entertaining

This was so much fun to watch, Ludwig is so nice on camera he's truly a natural born entertainer

my dealer woulda been in there w chef jackson saying "nah thats not 9 grams thats more like 9.5"

This is a really cool concept I hope there are more “Ludwig vs” videos :)

This is my favorite Ludwig video. It made me laugh so much and the chef’s personality+humor is just amazing. I would love to see more of this content

This chef seems like such a chill dude

Chef Jackson sense of humor is low key hilarious. I love it

Ludwig just doing a combination of dances and the luddy was hilarious

had a shitty day needed this love you lud merry Christmas lud buds

Seems like a really fun series. I thought the Welsh knife skill thing was a joke, but the results speak for itself. Setting the bar really high for the first episode in this new series. Chef Jackson was a great guest.

Love the video, love to see your production quality increasing exponentially, really shows that you are trying to make amazing content and putting a lot of effort in.

"I need some sake." I just became an alcoholic watching this.

The chef constantly joking around made me so happy 😂😂 Usually people in the restaurant business are all bougie and cocky af, but this man was laughing at PENIS jokes! Awesome 😂

Excellent job elevating this above a stream VOD! Really enjoyable concept and some great guys on camera!

It’s always so nice seeing their guests get comfortable and having fun, especially renowned guesses like chef Jackson

The chef being cool made it so much fun

Lud started off so good, i thought he was gonna win every single round. He definitely needed the redemption after those slap boxing rounds LOL

This video is ultimately life changing, inspiring and motivational. Keep it up mogul mail

The last two video are gold! Great job

This is such a banger please do it more

This was amazing! More of these Lud!

Unironically top tier content. Loved the video and would thoroughly enjoy more videos like this. Plus, I love sushi, so how could I not enjoy this?

Absolutely loved this video, can’t wait for more like this

I need more of this kinda content
