Creators Brian Koppelman and David Levien spectacularly display the city's vibrant food scene—but it's more than showing us how the one percent eats. It's about integrating food, which brings people together and is an integral part of our daily lives, into the storyline while honoring the quality, the diversity, and the legacy of culinary culture in New York City. 

It’s about the city staples that have been around for generations. It’s about the immigrants who brought their own food to New York and made it a part of city culture. It’s about the power joints where the movers and shakers of the city discuss the affairs of the day. It’s about the pizza slice or the candy bar that takes you back to your childhood. It’s about those who start at the bottom of the kitchen chain and ultimately open their own restaurant as well as about the old who pass the torch to future generations. It’s about the energy and the creativity in New York food industry that is setting the standards for the rest of the world. It’s about everyone who has contributed to making New York the dining capital of the world as it is today.
