      He's also the only one to actually give home cooked grits. Why use instant for something that barely takes time to cook?

From the looks of everything, I would love each and every one of these dishes, but if I were to order shrimp and grits, Shariff's would be exactly what I'd be expecting.

Also stop swapping out Polenta for Grits, it really is not the same, especially when you want to put them in cake form.

      ​@@eronbrooks2864 I don't know, I've had the grits patty done well once. It was your standard shrimp and grits recipe with andouille sausage, but with a good sized patty of grits (I'm talking 6 or 7 inches wide, not those little 2-3 inch patties she made) that was crispy on the outside and really creamy on the inside. I don't know how they did it but BOY was it killer. Just added a bit of really good crunch that I loved to it. I grew up in the shrimp and grits region of the US and have had some damn good shrimp and grits in my time, but this was near the top.

    I’ve been seeing Lorenzo on level 2 chef for a very long time now. With all the knowledge and experience acquired in doing these videos it’s logical to think that he is probably a level three chef now. I’m sure he is watching these videos and if he’s that much interested in cooking he already picked up a lot of knowledge from the level 3 chefs as well as the person who does the analysis.

    I never had Shrimp and Grits, but it sounds pretty good. It’s awesome to have Lorenzo back because I really like his upbeat personality. The professional chef from this episode is very informative as usual and I like how calm she is. I also like how confident and outgoing the level 1 chef is. It’s very interesting to see the professional chef make a more refined and fancy form of Shrimp and Grits and the Shrimp and Grits from the other 2 levels looks absolutely delicious. Overall though, all of their Shrimp and Grits looks awesome, but in terms of my preference, I think I will choose to eat the Shrimp and Grits from level 1 because it seems the most traditional but the most appetizing.

      The thing about the USA is that it’s an absolutely massive country. Each region has its own populations, and has incorporated completely different cultures into its local food. If you overlaid the USA over Europe, it’s about the same size, and we’ve got people living here from several different countries, who call it home. The food cultures that we bring with us when we come to the USA takes on a distinctly American way of doing things which is very different from what we’d eat back in the motherland.
