Synopsis:

The Chronicles of GB Lee is a mockumentary-style scripted comedy series following GB, a traditionalist Sichuan chef, and Jamie, a gadget-obsessed American millennial. After losing his beloved restaurant, GB reluctantly agrees to train Jamie — but neither of them is ready for what’s coming. From failed auditions and food disasters to viral fame and unlikely friendship, the duo find themselves at the chaotic intersection of discipline and disruption.

Each episode blends comedy, cooking, and heartfelt growth, using handheld camera work, fourth-wall-breaking confessionals, and sharp dialogue to deliver both laughs and layered character arcs.

Think Chef’s Table meets The Office — with chili oil and TikTok.
