Sneak Peek of The Globe

As someone who spends more than 300 days per year traveling, Robert knows a thing or two about exploring — and eating in — some of the world's best food cities.

Guest Bricia Lopez joins Daniela Soto-Innes to oversee a stop in Oaxaca City, where chefs must use local ingredients and time-honored tools to bring their dishes to life.

Meet the contestants of the first episode: Chefs Deborah de Corral, Rogelio Garcia, Gina Marinelli and Brandon Gray will travel to Beijing, Accra and Tel Aviv during a whirlwind culinary adventure. But only one will earn top honors.

To impress the judges, chefs must show their ability to utilize traditional ingredients in perhaps non-traditional ways.

Thanks to the massive screen on set, chefs and viewers alike will feel like they're completely immersed in a new city every round. First up, it's Beijing, China, a whopping 6,000 miles away.

True to the history of Beijing, chefs will be challenged to utilize the hot pot when making their Round 1 meal.

Chef Eric Adjepong is set to guest-judge this round, and he tells us there are five ingredients that make up authentic dishes in Accra: peanuts, habanero peppers, rice, plantains and corn.

Though you may not be able to travel to these faraway locales anytime soon, you can surely learn more about the flavors and customs for which they're known.

Thanks to the fully immersive screen on set, Kyoto, Japan, comes to life in all its gorgeous glory.
