I mean, if I was a 5 Star chef and went to Thailand and watched them cook and read some recipes I still wouldn’t have the audacity to think I knew how to cook authetic Thai food.
This isn’t fricking Midwest cusiine we are talking about. There’s a distinct nuance to S. LA cooking.
You see, that’s the thing about actual “five star” (whatever that means since the preeminent restaurant rating scale only awards three stars) chefs. They 100% could watch a dish be made twice, read some recipes, and put out a better dish.
They are trained in nuance. Any subjective nuance in south LA cooking would be a layup for them

You’re right on the stars. Brain fart.
But you really have some faith that a 3star chef would be able to automatically overwhelm a lifetime of training and honing of a skill in a specific cuisine.
I just don’t agree. I’ve seen it in person. I’ve seen seasoned chefs from elsewhere come down here and try to do what we do and fall far short.
