Plot Synopsis

Chef Todd Fisher travels across America, as he crosses off items on his bucket list of restaurants that serve the best and most innovative menu items in the nation. As a life-long restaurateur, Chef Todd's passion for palate pleasers has him seeking the best bacon, burgers, and steaks at iconic eateries, little-known diners and fancy food trucks. In each 60-minute episode, Chef Todd visits a handful of restaurants that are -- or at least should be -- world-renowned for one specialty menu item, including: "Bacon," during which Chef Todd samples bacon burgers at Slaters 50/50 in Los Angeles, learns how NYC's Crif Dogs crafts their bacon-wrapped hot dogs, and nibbles a bacon and chocolate ice cream sandwich at Big Gay Ice Cream; "Burgers," for which Chef Todd hits Chicago for cheeburgers made famous by a SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE skit inspired by the grill masters at Billy Goat Tavern and finishes in Atlanta at Holeman and Finch for its nightly Burger Time ritual; and "Steak," during which Chef Todd haunts a grill-your-own steak joint in Michigan and enjoys chicken fried steak in the Lone Star State.
