The Migrant Kitchen is an Emmy®-winning food series that explores California’s booming culinary scene through the eyes of a new generation of chefs whose cuisine is inspired by the immigrant experience. The show takes us to the kitchens of those who have transformed the culinary landscape of the state, combining traditional ethnic cuisines and a fusion of new flavors and techniques to make it a food capital of the world.
