Synopsis
BBC AMERICA's new restaurant series, Million Dollar Critic, introduces Giles Coren (Gordon Ramsay's The F-Word), the bitingly funny and controversial restaurant critic of The London Times to North America. It's said that a positive review from the vigorous writer is worth a million dollars and that his words can change the fates and fortunes of the restaurants he visits.With help from his researcher Julia Pileggi, each episode the host samples meals from five worthy restaurants and thrusts one lucky winner into the limelight by giving them his million dollar review. Giles Coren has eaten at the world's finest restaurants, but nothing excites him more than discovering a hidden gem — a place that's doing everything right and deserves recognition. In this new series, he travels city-to-city to discover some of North America's most enticing, and authentic restaurants in need of the acknowledgment that can help them pop on the culinary map. From Philadelphia, Charleston, and Providence, to Toronto, St. John's Newfoundland, and Québec City, he'll assess and select one winning restaurant in each city. Along the way, Coren receives some helpful insight from local residents including Toronto Mayor Rob Ford. Caring little if the restaurant is a hole-in-the-wall, or a Michelin-starred destination, Coren judges his experiences based on the chef's passion for food, the restaurant's atmosphere, and service. This levels the playing field for all restaurants hoping to win his review. While it can get hot in the kitchen, it's Coren's British wit and blunt honesty that drives this new culinary series.
