About this episode

The hosts discuss the second season of the Korean Cookery Reality TV show Culinary Class Wars, including a spoiler-free overview and a detailed analysis of the competition.

We are back! Sarah & Grace are joined once again by Lisa for a deep dive on the Korean Cookery Reality TV show that we love - Culinary Class Wars. The Netflix show returned for a second season late 2025 so we just had to get the gang back together to break down the drama and relive the dishes. If you've not watched the programme, we have a short spoiler free section to tell you all about it before heading to the spoiler section to discuss the competition and highlight our faves and compare it to Season 1.
