The Bear is back for another season as Chef Carmy and the gang at Chicago’s soon-to-be number-one fine dining establishment struggle to maintain a popular restaurant with life’s many ups and downs, whilst recovering from deep-rooted childhood trauma. All in a day’s work…
The Bear burst onto our screens in 2022 with its signature dry humour and high-stakes drama set in a failing Chicago-based restaurant. Chef Carmen, a chef classically trained in French cuisine, returns to the family business after the unexpected death of his beloved brother, where he’s faced with the day-to-day problems of running a dysfunctional kitchen and bringing a team up to his lofty standards.
It’s a show, ultimately, about family – from the one you’re born with to the one that you choose – and many of us who have worked in hospitality before, The Bear is an accurate representation of working in these very real, high-pressure environments and the inevitable camaraderie that forms between the individuals that make up the team.
