Netflix is bringing back a new season of its cooking series “Dinner Time Live With David Chang,” just in time for the holidays. The series’ second season is scheduled to premiere on Tuesday, Oct. 8, with nine 50-minute episodes rolling out weekly.

In “Dinner Time Live,” the famed restaurateur (founder of the Momofuku restaurant group) “personally cooks for his celebrity friends in his downtown Los Angeles kitchen. It’s a VIP experience where the meal, the mishaps and the conversation all happen in real time. No food swaps, no food stylists, just real culinary secrets and recipes from a world-renowned chef cooking live,” the synopsis reads.
