Best Bite in Town

Six restaurants are profiled within one town by three chef personalities, each scouting two locations and then choosing the best of their two. Then, the final three restaurants submit their best dish to local judges to see who wins $5,000 for their restaurant and a charity of their choice.

This series adds a competitive element to the usual food travel concept, and showcases just how appetizing lesser-known areas' cuisine can be. This series boosts tourism for often-overlooked places and helps good causes at the same time.

The third episode, set in Joplin, MO, blew me away with how good the food looked and the flavors the chefs were imparting. Just like that, a town I'd never have considered stopping by or living in now seems much more interesting. If a television show can do that for traditionally less eye-catching places, that's only a good thing in my book.

The show Best Bite in Town has an excellent concept and a lineup of chefs who truly add value to the competition. However, I believe that Noah Cappe's presence does not fit the tone of the show. His hosting style is exaggerated and unnatural, coming across as an unpleasant clown who detracts from the authenticity and quality of the content. His over-the-top reactions feel forced, making his segments less enjoyable compared to the other talented chefs.

Additionally, it would be ideal for the judges to have more time to express their opinions and justify their scores in greater detail. Their insights are valuable, and extending their screen time would provide viewers with a more in-depth understanding of the evaluation process, making the competition more transparent and engaging.

This show is very entertaining. If you like Beat Bobby Flay, Bobby's Triple Threat, Tournament of Champions, DDD, Guys Grocery Games...it has a similar feel.

The guest chefs are wonderful and believable...however...Noah seems a little unauthentic. But I haven't stopped watching yet!

If you watch the chefs faces from the restaurants that Noah visits...you will sometimes see that they feel the same about Noah. This is their livelihood...and he doesn't seem to be taking it seriously. Guy's greatest strength as a Food Network host is his ability to make people feel like rockstars...rather than the way Noah makes them feel like a sideshow to his own antics. Come on Noah...just be real!

Before the judging begins...in every episode...it is revealed that the dishes will be scored on a point scale.

20 points for taste 10 points for presentation 10 points for craveability

And this is the only part of the show that could potentially loose me as a viewer...

So...after the judges taste the entries for The Best Bite in Town...they look at each other and ask if they are sure about who the winner is? So...they can change their mind? Isn't this based on points?

They reveal the scores on every Guy Fieri competition show. And I understand that maybe...they don't reveal the scores out of kindness for the local chefs.

HOW ABOUT JUST SAY: "THE SCORES ARE IN AND THE WINNER IS" ?!!!!

WHAT IS ALL OF THIS "OKAY...ARE WE SURE ABOUT WHO THE WINNER IS...ARE WE SURE?" WHY AREN'T THEY SURE?
