Wish the cameraman didn't insist on shooting through passers by and opted to physically get close to details instead of zooming in.
Wish Ainsley didn't insist on traveling alone to countries where he didn't speak the native tongue. There's so many moments where he "feels tongue tied" and there's no input from the natives. A translator would have made the show a lot more informative. A missed opportunity to get a worldly perspective as opposed to just his.
Another reviewer mentioned he focuses a bit too much on redoing recipes and even making sure the cooks try it as if to show them he could outdo what these guys have devoted their lives to making. It does indeed feel a bit in "bad taste". You can see it too in the locals expressions. Awkward.
Wish he didn't insist on talking with his mouth chalk full of food. It's literally disgusting lol.
Otherwise, I do appreciate the breakdown with some of the local chefs that show the way they make their signature dishes.
