Our first 13-episode season explores the burgeoning culinary maker movement, taking viewers from Long Island to Seattle to Chicago to Dallas. Each maker Cat profiles in the series has a unique story to tell that reflects not only the deep connections that exist within the local food community, but also the character of the various corners of the U.S.
tasteMAKERS follows a documentary-style story arc, taking viewers inside the world of the maker being profiled, exploring the creative process as well as the maker's connections within the culinary community, finally landing in the kitchen to cook up something delicious.
Viewers learn what drives these makers, what inspires them, how they approach their creative process, how they learned their craft. The series explores the process itself and how artisans do their work, uncovering regional food culture along the way.
