Legends, Netflix elevates the culinary documentary form to a storytelling art—showcasing world-renowned chefs not just for their food, but for their cultural influence, values, and vision. This panel explores how the series goes beyond the kitchen to illuminate deeper narratives of resilience, creativity, and social impact. Focusing on profiles such as Chef José Andrés, whose World Central Kitchen mobilizes meals in disaster zones and advocacy for immigrants here in the US, and Chef Jamie Oliver, whose campaigns for healthier school meals have redefined food education, we’ll examine how Chef’s Table: Legends transforms chefs into changemakers. Join us for a conversation on how cinematic storytelling in food media can inspire audiences, advocate for equity, and catalyze global movements—one plate at a time.
