S3 published a 20-minute YouTube video on May 17 following Michelin-starred chef Fidel Caballero through a 12-hour food itinerary across New York City. The episode, titled “12HRS in New York City - A Michelin Chef Shows Us Where He Eats ft. Bar Kabawa, Chez Fifi, Penny...,” was posted on the channel’s “12 Hours with Michelin Chefs” series page. The video identifies Caballero as “Chef Fidel of Corima” and frames the route as a personal tour “from Brooklyn to Manhattan.” The upload adds another New York installment to S3’s chef-led travel format, which has also featured Michelin-linked restaurant tours in Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles and an earlier New York episode. S3’s channel page describes the series as daylong city visits with chefs showing viewers their favorite restaurants, bars and hidden gems. ### Which chef is in the new New York episode? (youtube.com) Fidel Caballero is the chef featured in the May 17 video, and the episode ties him directly to Corima in Manhattan. The Michelin Guide lists Corima as a one-star restaurant in New York and says it is open Tuesday through Saturday at 3 Allen Street. Corima’s own website says the restaurant won a Michelin star within a year of opening and has also been named to Bon Appetit’s best new restaurant list and North America’s 50 Best Restaurants ranking. (youtube.com) The video returns to Corima midway through the itinerary and describes it as the place where Caballero’s “vision comes to life.” ### Which restaurants does the video actually name? (youtube.com) The YouTube description lists Vato in Brooklyn as the first stop, followed by Bar Kabawa, Bar Miller, Penny, Corima, Chez Fifi and Bar Chucho. The text says the tour starts at Vato, moves through Manhattan stops including Bar Kabawa and Penny, returns to Corima, then heads uptown to Chez Fifi before ending at Bar Chucho. (corimanyc.com) Bar Kabawa appears in the video description as the neighboring bar to Kabawa. Momofuku’s Kabawa page says the restaurant is at 8 Extra Place in the East Village and offers a three-course prix fixe menu priced at $145, while the same page links diners to “Bar Kabawa” next door. Penny is identified in the video as a “neighborhood gem,” and Penny’s official site describes it as a raw bar and seafood counter at 90 E. 10th Street in the East Village. (youtube.com) The Michelin Guide includes Penny in its New York restaurant listings. Chez Fifi is described in the video as a townhouse restaurant serving French bistro classics with some Basque influence. (youtube.com) The Michelin Guide lists Chez Fifi at 140 E. 74th Street on the Upper East Side, and reservation pages describe executive chef Zack Zeidman’s menu in a historic townhouse setting. ### Why does Bar Kabawa stand out in the description? Bar Kabawa is the stop singled out with the strongest superlative in the YouTube text. (youtube.com) The description says neighboring restaurant Kabawa “was just named the #1 restaurant in the New York Times,” though the video page does not link to that ranking or specify a date for it. Kabawa is presented on Momofuku’s site as “a deeply personal restaurant from Chef Paul Carmichael and Momofuku,” and the Michelin Guide lists it as a New York restaurant at the same Extra Place address. (youtube.com) The video description pairs the stop with “daiquiris that don’t mess around,” indicating the bar visit rather than the full prix-fixe dining room. ### Where does the route begin and end? (youtube.com) Vato in Brooklyn is the opening stop in the published description, and the text says Caballero starts close to home by showing the flour tortillas and burrito style he grew up with. The route then shifts into Manhattan for several restaurant visits before returning to Caballero’s own dining room at Corima. Bar Chucho is the final stop in the posted itinerary. (momofuku.com) The video description says Caballero had opened that concept “only a few weeks ago,” and Time Out reported on April 3 that Bar Chucho had just opened at 37 Market Street from the Corima team, including Caballero, Jesse Kranzler and Sofia Ostos. ### Where can viewers find the video next? The May 17 episode is available on S3’s YouTube channel under the “12 Hours with Michelin Chefs” series. (youtube.com) S3’s channel page shows the New York upload alongside earlier chef-led city tours, and the Caballero episode remains listed with its named stops in the public description.
