And while the producer refused to name the difficult pair (“There really are only two I would say were not pleasant”), he did offer an extensive list of chefs he loved working with, giving fans a clearer picture of the most admired personalities behind the scenes.
The producer emphasized repeatedly that the overwhelming majority of food personalities are delightful, writing, “In no particular order (and just because a name isn’t here doesn’t mean they’re terrible to work with!)”—before listing:

Sunny Anderson: The Producer’s Most Passionate Defense
Anderson often inspires debate among viewers; The Kitchen co-host is a polarizing figure. But according to someone who worked with her daily, the criticism couldn’t be further from the truth.
He went even further when asked why she appears on Beat Bobby Flay so often:

Michael Symon: "It is impossible to be in a room with Michael Symon and to not be happy. He is the absolute best."
When asked if Damaris is as fun and funny in real life as she comes across on TV, the producer said absolutely, writing, "Damaris is a RIOT. She comes to set with her own bits ready to go and rarely needs us to come up with anything for her."
While this post focuses on the broader roster of chefs, Bobby Flay—who appears a lot in the AMA—earned consistently strong marks from the producer, who wrote, “Bobby is very chill and loves to joke around off set. He’s always kind.”
But What About the Two Difficult Chefs?
The producer refused to give hints, writing, "Pleading the 5th on this one. ?”
He did, however, clarify two important things: They were the exception, not the rule, and any omissions from the nice list don’t mean anything. He simply worked with too many chefs to list them all.
In other words, nearly everyone was lovely—the difficult duo is not representative of the network.
From Symon’s infectious joy to Sunny’s set-saving energy to Damaris’ humor to Zakarian's surprising skeptics, the behind-the-scenes culture described here is far warmer—and more fun—than viewers might expect.
