Rudy Maxa's World takes a second look at the vibrant city of Tokyo, this time with an emphasis on Tokyo's cuisine. "There are more Michelin-starred restaurants in Tokyo than in Paris and New York combined," notes Washington, D.C. chef and restaurant owner Daisuke Utagawa. "And it's well known that Japanese chefs are highly regarded around the world. But it's also the commitment, or the kodawari, of producers of many of the food products those chefs use that helps makes the cuisine what it is." Utagawa joins show host Rudy Maxa to bring the concept of kodawari to the screen, visiting the producers of the food that's made Japanese cuisine so famous.
